Most commonly they are chromogenic but it turns out that some variations are nonchromogenic and pathological.

What color is S marcescens in an agar slant tube?
Serratia marcescens makes a bright red streak on an agar slant
What is chromogenic substrate test?
chromogenic detection test = a molecular assay that has colored products, as opposed to chemiluminescent products
What does Chromogenic systems mean?
Chromogenic system is a method used to create the colors you see in an image in color films or papers by creating color dyes during processing.
How do you dispose of Serratia marcescens?
No
The arrangement of serratia marcescens?
bacillus
There is a lack of orange-red pigmentation in some of the growth on your agar slantl abeled S.marcescens. Does this necessarily indicate the presence of a contaminant?
No. The reason is, Chromogenic microorganisms may produce intracellular pigments that are responsible for the coloration of the organisms as seen in surface colonies. Other organisms produce extracellular soluble pigments that are excreted into the medium & that also produce a color. BUT........ most organisms, however, are nonchromogenic & will appear white to gray. ~jmata Microbiology 205 lab manual question. ~
How is pigment production in s marcescens controlled by temperature?
S. marcescens can grow at 5 c to 40 c. but when the temperature gets below 30 c. a blood red pigment begins to show on anything the S. marcescens is on. S. marcescens is a facultative anaerobe meaning they can live with or without oxygen.

If streaking for isolated colonies was done with Serratia Marcescens what is the difference between pigmentation between cells grown at 25 and 37 degrees celsius?
Serratia marcescens incubated at 37 degrees Celsius will have almost a clear pigmentation. However, when S. marcescens is incubated at 25 degrees Celsius it will produce a very distinct red color.

Is serratia marcescens contagious?
No, it is infectious.
Can one catch serratia marcescens from family member?
My Dad has had Serratia marcescens for 5 months and no antibiotic is getting rid of it. Can he infect his family by coughing?
What kind of species is the Serratia Marcescens?
Serratia Marcescens is a form of bacteria. It is frequently involved in urinary tract and wound infections. Creepy as it is, this bacteria can be found in parts of the teeth.
