Answer:
My group believes that Elisa has Staphylococcus Aureus. I think that she does have the manifestation of the colonies condition because she tested positive to clumping factor, coagulase, hemolysins and thermostable deoxyribonuclease, which are used to identify S aureus. Commercial latex agglutination tests conducted on her blood sample also tested positive to the S aureus. For further clarifications, my Group also used biotyping kits for the identification of S epidermidis for commercial confirmation.
However, the catalase test was conducted to distinguish streptococci (catalase-negative) staphylococci which are catalase positive. The test was performed by flooding an agar slant or broth culture with several drops of 3% hydrogen peroxide. Catalase-positive cultures bubble at once.
Precaution: The test was not done on blood agar because blood itself will produce bubbles.
Explanation:
In line with the outcome of the test conducted on Elisa's blood sample, we observed there was a blood poisoning and the occurrence of Septicemia in the bloodstream. Elish on clinical observations exhibited fever and low blood pressure as signs of septicemia. The bacteria has also traveled to locations deep within her body to produce infections affecting: Internal organs, such as her brain, heart and lungs.
