- Hello, I want you pleaseeee to make a dichotomous key based on provided experiments to identify a an unknown bacterium mixture. It can be E. coli, B. Bulgaris, B subtilis, b aerogenes, m leuteus, s. Aureus, and s epidermisis. Make it based on these possible experiments: phenol red broth, mr/vp test, catalase test, oxidase test, nitrate reduction test, citrate utilization test, Malonate utilization test, decarboxylation test, starch hydrolysis test, dna hydrolysis test, lipid hydrolysis test, gelatin hydrolysis test, urea hydrolysis, SIM medium, triple sugar iron agar test, blood agar test. So far we have run a MAC agar and PEAA plate of the bacteriumCan gelatin hydrolysis be correlated with the pathogenicity of a bacterium? Explain your answer. In addition to H2S production and motility, for what other test can SIM medium be used?for E-coli- Describe results for Gram reaction, cell shape and arrangement (look up information) What color changes were observed for each test? Any zones of inhibition (for antibiotics only)?
