Bacillus, Escherichia, or Mycoplasma
You
are given a sputum sample from a patient that may be infected with a
bacterium from one of the following genera: Bacillus, Escherichia, or
Mycoplasma. In a Microsoft Word document, describe the important
anatomical differences among these three genera (i.e., those features
that could be used to differentiate among them) and the staining
protocols you would use to identify which genera is causing the
patient’s infection. When discussing each staining protocol, it is
important not only to mention the steps involved, but also how each step
and each protocol would identify or eliminate each of these genera as a
suspect.
