Isolated from human intestine, this organism is known for its distinctive putrefactive odor.

Isolated from human nasopharynx. Presumably not related to N. sicca; some relation to N. gonorrhoeae. Often agglutinates in saline. 

Isolated from human nasopharynx, saliva, and sputum. Spontaneously agglutinates in saline.

Isolated from sewage, human intestines, and urinary tract infections. Spreading colonies are seen on agar growth medium. 

All microbial cultures undergo an extensive quality control program prior to releasing for sale, so they are guaranteed for purity as well as for species.

Nitrogen fixation, produces nodules on legume roots. Bacteroids from nodules can be X, Y, and club shapes.

Frequent human isolate. Causes gastroenteritis.

Ames test strain for detecting carcinogens. Causes infection in humans. 

Both of these strains of Serratia marcescens are colorless mutants when plated alone, but when grown together, they produce a red pigment.

From sewage and human intestine. Causes dysentery. 

isolated from human intestine. Lactose positive and sucrose positive after a few days’ growth. Causes a mild form of dysentery.

All microbial cultures undergo an extensive quality control program prior to releasing for sale, so they are guaranteed for purity as well as for species.

Beta hemolysis on blood. Causes wound infections and septicemia. 

This yellow, shiny organism is known to cause wound infections and more famously, toxic shock syndrome.

Grows on dead tissues. Novobiocin resistant (S. epidermidis and S. aureus novobiocin sensitive). 

Isolated from milk and udders of cows. Lancefield group B, beta hemolysis. Causes infection of the female genital tract, maternal septicemia, neonatal infections. Camp test positive; resistant to bacitracin.
