Which bacilli are gram positive oxidase negative and catalase positive?

Streptobacillus is a gram negative, oxidase negative, catalase negative, non motile organism, and 0.3-0.7 µm by 1-5 µm in lengthEscherichia coliMost of the Enterobacteriaceae are Catalase Positive. E. coli is Catalase Positive and Oxidase Negative. Do not report the previous as an answer. For gram negative, catalase negative and oxidase negative rods, it is likely that you have bacteria of the Bacteroides genus.


Are eukayotic cells from you gumline gram-positive or gram-negative?

Eukaryotic cells, such as those found in the gumline, do not fall under the categories of gram-positive or gram-negative bacteria. The gram staining technique is used to determine the cell wall structure of bacteria, not eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells have a different cellular structure, including a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.


What is the third rarest blood type?

AB+ is the third rarest blood type. 1 person in 29 has AB+ which is 3.4% percent of the population.


What is the difference between A. faecalis and P. aeruginosa?

Enterococcus faecalis is a Gram-positive bacterium commonly found in the intestines of humans and animals, while Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative bacterium often found in soil and water. P. aeruginosa is known for its ability to cause infections in immunocompromised individuals, while A. faecalis is typically less pathogenic but can cause infections in certain settings.


What do you mean by Rh o negative blood type?

It is simply your blood type. You receive blood alleles from your parents. One of them must have been type A or AB, and must have been type negative. It also means you can donate blood to people type A+ or AB+. You can only receive blood from people A+, A-, O+, or O-.

WHAT Are the two types of electric charges found on electrons and protons?

Protons are positive, and electrons are negative.


What are the positive and negative referred to?

When used with numbers, positive means "more than zero", and negative means "less than zero". Other meanings are:* Positive: something favorable; negative: something unfavorable. * Positive: something is found; negative: nothing was found. Especially used for medical analysis. Note that this meaning is quite contrary to the previous one - since finding a disease can be quite unfavorable for the patient!

What chemical is responsible for the acid fast property of mycobacteria?

the cell wall contains mycolic acid. a dye (carbol fuchsin) is applied to the culture, then washed with acid-alcohol. those cells with mycolic acid in their cell wall will retain the dye even after the alcohol rinse. but those cells without mycolic acid will release the dye.


What is negative selection of immunology?

Immunology relies on both negative selection and positive selection. Negative selection, or non resultant, provides for discounting a method of treatment. Positive selection, or improvement can at times be found by elimination through negative selection.

Where is the positive ad negative charge located in an atom?

In an atom, the positive charges are found in the nucleus. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. The protons are positively charged while the neutrons are neutral.The negative charges can be found in the electrons which revolve around the nucleus.In a neutral atom, the number of positive charges (protons) is equal to the number of negative charges (electrons).


How do you multiply a negative number with a positive fraction?

Any negative multplied to a positive is ALWAYS a negative answer, be it an integer or a fraction. Here is a table of multiplication/division of negative/positive numbers. X + = + X - = - X + = - X - = + If no sign is given before the numbers , then read it as positive (+). So (+) a X - b/c = - ab/c . (Note the negative in the answer!!!!!!


What is the positive charge in an atomic model?

What does positive and negative charges make?

They stem from the nucleus of an atom. The atom is composed of electrons, which emit a negative charge, protons which emit positive charges and neutrons which have a neutral charge. When an atom, had a plus positive or minus negative charged, it is called an ion. ion because it either has an extra electron giving it a negative charge, or its missing an electron, giving it a positive charge
