Plesiomonas can be distinguished from Shigella in diarrheal stools by an oxidase test: Plesiomonas is oxidase positive and Shigella is oxidase negative. Plesiomonas is easily differentiated from Aeromonas sp. and other oxidase-positive organisms by standard biochemical tests. [11]
The oxidase test is used to determine whether an organism possesses the cytochrome c oxidase enzyme. The test is used as an aid for the differentiation of Neisseria, Moraxella, Campylobacter and Pasteurella species (oxidase positive). It is also used to differentiate pseudomonads from related species. [1]
Positive for the phenylalanine test and the Harnstoff urea test P. vulgaris can test positive or negative for citrate. All combine for a Biocode ID of 31406, (Biocode ID 31402, 31404, 31407 all resulting in P. vulgaris with asymptomatic results) for use in the Interpretation Guide/Computer Coding and Identification System.
Symptoms typically resolve within 72 hours, but can persist for up to 10 days in immunocompromised individuals. As the vast majority of cases of V. parahaemolyticus food poisoning are self-limiting, doxycycline is not typically necessary. In severe cases, ORS is indicated. [2]
This line is named the Dienes line after its discoverer Louis Dienes. [7] The micro-organism tests: Indole-negative and nitrate reductase-positive (no gas bubbles produced) Methyl red-positive and Voges-Proskauer negative (Can be both MR- and V-P-positive) Catalase positive and cytochrome oxidase-negative; Phenylalanine deaminase-positive
Campylobacter upsaliensis is a catalase negative species that can be further differentiated from other Campylobacter species by its inability to produce hydrogen sulfide on triple sugar iron as well as a positive oxidase test. [2] Additionally it cannot hydrolyze hippurate like other species and is considered sensitive to nalidixic acid. [4]
E. meningoseptica is positive by the catalase test, the oxidase test, and the indole test. It is negative by the urease test. In general, it is negative by the nitrate reductase test, although some strains are positive. [6] E. meningoseptica grows well on blood agar and chocolate agar. Colonies are very pale yellow and may not be easily evident ...
Alcaligenes faecalis is a species of Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria commonly found in the environment.It was originally named for its first discovery in feces, but was later found to be common in soil, water, and environments in association with humans.
