Document Summary

Table 1: results from phenotypic analysis of organism a. Growth of bacteria straight down positive positive positive. Bacteria grew along path of needle from stab and didn"t move around tube. A bit cloudy, but somewhat transparent almost color of the medium. There was pink growth, but white growth in the center so maybe there was some contamination. Pink growth a lot of growth in the plates under. The plates that contained growth had very weak growth. About 90% of tube was blue, indicating that my organism really. 18. catalase test positive like citrate as carbon source. Cloudy at top of tube indicating growth, no color change. Growth in tube, liquid changed to a darker cloudy orange color dark blue color after ~10sec. Oxidase positive, aerobic, can use o2 as e- acceptor in respiration. Catalase positive, grows in an oxygen rich environment. Table 1: results from phenotypic analysis of organism e.
