"bacteria"

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

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

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

This organism can be isolated from many human urinary tract infections, as well as polluted water and sewage. It is commonly identified by its distinctive grape-like smell (trimethylamine) or because it can turn the agar light green due to production of a blue pigment (pyocyanin).
