Discussion The possible identity of the unknown organisms in the mixed culture was limited to bacteria that we had worked with previously in lab. Initially a Gram stain was conducted in order to distinguish the unknown bacterium as a Gram-positive and/or a Gram-negative organism (Lancaster and Bennett‚ 2012; Kellenberger‚ 2001). Based upon the results‚ both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria were observed in the unknown mixed culture (Table 1 and Table 2; Kellenberger‚ 2001). In order

Identification of Proteus vulgaris from an Unknown Sample Lakhram Bhisham March 31‚ 2016 01:447:390 General Microbiology TA: Jennifer Goff ABSTRACT This report delineates how unknown #405 was identified as Proteus vulgaris out of a possible seven species of Enterobacteriaceae by applying various tests that are able to distinguish between members of the family. Inevitably‚ the results for many tests are identical across multiple species‚ which is expected due to the organisms’ evolutionary relatedness
