"bacteria"

Grows on dead tissues. Novobiocin resistant (S. epidermidis and S. aureus novobiocin sensitive). 

Isolated from human nasopharynx. Presumably not related to N. sicca; some relation to N. gonorrhoeae. Often agglutinates in saline. 

A collection of some of the strains of Escherichia coli needed to grow various coliphages (available separately).

Produces streptomycin. Branching mycelium and coenocytic hyphae. 

Isolated from human saliva, sputum, and intestine. No Lancefield group shown, alpha hemolysis.

The presence of A. viscolactis in milk is a common cause for sliminess or "ropiness".

Found in seawater and marine animals. Young cultures luminescent.

Frequent human isolate. Causes gastroenteritis.

From sewage and human intestine. Causes dysentery. 

Normal flora of respiratory tract. Beta-lactamase positive. Also known by the name Branhamella catarrhalis

Nitrogen fixation, produces nodules on legume roots. Bacteroids from nodules can be X, Y, and club shapes.

This organism is normal flora of human skin.

This yellow, shiny organism is known to cause wound infections and more famously, toxic shock syndrome.

This organism is commonly isolated from soil, and depending upon the temperature of its environment, can produce a distinctive red pigment.

This organism is normally isolated from soil and is a non-pathogenic strain of the mycobacterium genus.
