BIOL 2051 : Final Lab Study Guide
Document Summary
Catalase positive (p. 120) frequent cause of nosocomial infections after cardiac surgery (p. 185) does not ferment mannitol (p. 186) Utilize mixed acid fermentation (p. 148) reduces nitrate to nitrite (p. 154) bacteriophage lambda only infects this (p. 178) Was isolated in sugarcane to aerobically break down cellulose. (p. 127) May be present in feces but may be present in the environment and in decaying vegetation which has not been contaminated with feces (p. 147). Reduces nitrate to nitrous oxide and/or dinitrogen (p. 154) Causes strep throat, scarlet fever, and other illnesses and produces beta hemolysis (p. 164) Produces an enterotoxin (toxin that causes enteric illness of the gastrointestinal tract) that causes gastroenteritis (type of food poisoning). Causes toxic shock syndrome, styes, pimples, boils, and wound infections. Produces a toxin that causes plasma to clot. (p. 185) ferments mannitol (p. 186) *results of experiment 25 bacteria not on here.
