What describes the correct cellular morphology and gram reaction for staphylococcus aureus?
The cell morphology of Staphylococcus aureus is spherical in appearance. Spherical bacterium are known as coccus and appear as tetrads (4) or more in groups. They stain Gram +.
What is importance of Gram staining in medical setting?
To determine which pathogen you are dealing with. Bacteria with a thick peptidoglycan layer stain gram positive (like staphylococcus aureus) while bacteria with a thin layer stain gram negative (like escherichia coli)

What is the color of staphylococcus aureus after gram staining?
Post ID Special:Contributionssaid: "blue-violet.....because it is a gram-negative bacteria"Wrong...the color is correct, but S. aureus is gram-POSITIVE.

SEPTIC shock due to gram-positive bacteria is caused by?
MRSA-- methicillin resistant staphylococcus aureus
What are E coli and Staphylococcus aureus classified as?
E. coli is a gram-negative bacteria.S. aureus is a gram-positive coccus. It is a coccus because its shape is round (from the Greek kokkos=grain).
What are examples of gram positive aerobic bacteria?
staphylococcus epidermidis ,staphylococcus aureus ,staphylococcus albus ,streptococcus pyogenes ,streptococcus pneumonia , clostridium tetani , clostridium botulinum ,actinomyces odontolyticus ,bacillus subtilis , lactobacillus bacillus anthracis.
Does Staphylococcus grow on non crystal violet MacConkey agar?
Staphylococcus will not grow on Mac since crystal violet inhibits the growth of Gram positivesfmchinea: Actually some species of staphylococcus grow on MacConkey's plate including Staphylococcus aureus.
What are the general characteristics of staphylococcus Aureus?
Gram + coccus. Positive methanol test. Yellow on agar.
