Title: A day shift microbiologist encounters an oxidase negative, non-lactose fermenter in a urine culture.
Post by: lubadub on Mar 5, 2016
A day shift microbiologist encounters an oxidase negative, non-lactose fermenter in a urine culture. To determine if it is a member of the Enterobacteriaceae or a nonfermenter, he sets up a TSI agar slant. After 10 hours of incubation at 35°C in ambient air, the evening shift microbiologist reads the tube as a yellow slant and yellow deep or butt. This result
   a.  indicates a member of the Enterobacteriaceae.
   b.  indicates a nonfermenter.
   c.  could be due to a gram-positive organism. Perform a Gram stain.
   d.  is invalid.
