Autoclave indicator
Bacillus stearothermophilus and Clostridium
Dry heat indicator
Bacillus subtillis var. niger
Radiation indicator
Bacillus pumilis
Gas sterilant indicator
Bacillus subtillis var. globujii
Phenol coeffocient indicator
Staphylococcus aureus and Salmonella typhi
Pseudocatalase positive gram positive cocci
Aerococcus
Enterococcus
Rothis
Catalase postive cocci that is strictly aerobe
Micrococcus
So therefore, it does NOT FERMENT but OXIDIZES carbohydrates
Catalase positive and coagulase positive organism other than Staphylococcus aureus
Staphylococcus intermedius
PYR positive Staphylococcus species
Staphylococcus lugdunensis
Staphylococcus intermedius
Staphylococcus schleiri
Catalase positive cocci associated with MARINE LIFE
Planococcus
WEAKLY catalase positive cocci associated in cardiac catheter and is WHITE, TRANSPARENT and STICKY (colonies)
Stomatococcus
Catalase negative cocci that is STRICT ANAEROBE
Peptostreptococcus
Catalase negative cocci that needs thiol compounds such as cysteine, B6 and pyridoxal as growth factors (AKA nutritionally variant streptococci)
Abiotrophia
Granulicatella
Other catalase negative cocci that are positive for PYR other than Streptococcus pneumoniae
Enterococcus
Aerococcus
Gemella
Catalase negative cocci that is the most common cause of SBE/Subacute Bacterial Endocarditis
Viridans Streptococci
Most commonly isolated Viridans streptococci
Streptococcus mutans
Streptococci capable of causing gastrointestinal carcinoma
Streptococcus bovis
Member of Neisseria that is oxidase positive and catalase NEGATIVE (because every other Neisseria is oxidase positive and catalase positive)
Neisseria elongate
Characteristics of Aerococcus viridans versus Aerococcus urinae
Aerococcus viridans:
BE +
PYR +
Aerococcus urinae:
BE -
PYR -
Genus of Streptococcacea that is easily decolorized thereby mistaken as a gram negative cocci
Gemella
Neisseria specie That is morphologically similar to Neisseria gonorrhea
Katunog niya!!

Assacharolytic, YELLOW pigmented Neisseria that can grow at 22C
Neisseria flavescens
Neisseria specie that is ONPG POSITIVE
Neisseria lactamica
Neisseria specie that is found in dolphin airways and produce large, adherent mucoid colonies
Neisseria mucosa
DOLPHINS DOLPHINS
Neisseria specie that produce dry wrinkled and BREAD CRUMBS colonies
Neisseria sicca
SICCA BREAD
Neisseria specie that is normal flora in dogs and is also PAD POSITIVE
