"Freeze-Dried Specimens"

This organism is commonly found in soil and water, and is also associated with spoiled food. It produces a diffusible fluorescent pigment.

This spore-forming, thermophilic organism is commonly used for germicidal and sporicidal testing due to its ability to withstand higher-than-normal temperatures.

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

No Lancefield group shown, alpha hemolysis. Bile solubility test positive, optochin sensitive. Causes pneumonia. 

Red-pigmented halophile from evaporating salt ponds; requires 25% salt medium, lyses easily in plain water, releasing DNA.

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.

A. tumefaciens is a pathogenic soil bacterium known to cause grown gall disease, in nut trees and the plants of some stone fruits.

This non-pathogenic strain of E. coli was initially created for cloning use.

Colorless, most widely dispersed of the Serratia species.
