    battery of tube tests and plates designed to lead to identification of two unknown bacterial species‚ from the combination of all results. A sample of bacteria was used‚ labeled “Sample 4”‚ from which both species was to be obtained‚ one gram positive and one gram negative. Table 1 is a list of the possible bacteria to be identified; the basic ideas and practice of identification of an unknown sample of bacteria are important for a microbiologist to develop. Not only is proper procedural practice

    two main micro-organisms that cause TSS are Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes. TSS is associated with the use of highly absorbent tampons but can also arise from Staphylococcus aureus infection at non-genital areas (for example wounds).[4] "From a UK population of around 60 million there were about 40 cases reported each year‚ half of which are associated with women using tampons." [1] Staphylococcus aureus are anaerobic‚ gram positive bacterium. They lie harmlessly in the

    plate seemed to show that E. coli did not have lipases because it did not have clear zones. Staphylococcus aureus seemed to have these clear zones meaning it can secrete lipases. The bacteria Bacillus subtilis did not grow well to see if there was a clearing. After doing some research‚ it was shown that B. subtilis is lipase positive so there should have also been some clear sones like the Staphylococcus aureus (Watson). The DNAse agar could not have been analyzed because HCl was not available to precipitate
