Hi kinda new here, intro’ed myself in the off-topic section, for those who wanna read a lil about me 🙂

Anyway, I have this report due this thursday. We had a two-week long lab experiment with bacteria, and at the end of it, we have to write a report (as usual). Now the thing is, my demonstrator is kinda expecting a rather impossible task. Using only the info I’m giving below, I have to actually identify the two strains of bacteria.

I’m still a first year 2nd sem student, so this is kinda, well, really hard for me especially without personal help and without the correct links. Did quite abit of browsing, didn’t come across anything online…hope you guys can help. Btw here is the info:

Microorganism Sample A Sample B
Motility Positive Positive
Haemolysis α-haemolysis β-haemolysis
Gram stain Positive Negative
Spores Positive Negative
Capsule Positive Negative
Catalase Positive Positive

For sample A, the closest I could find so far was B.subtilis, but it its b-hemolytic, not a-hemolytic.

Any help, ideas, or links will be greatly appreciated. Sorry if this might be a little too much, but….well I gotta get this done with (for the record, most of my classmates have already given up and decided to simply go with general statements on the bacteria, so there goes “depending on my peers”…)

Thanks!

EDIT:
Hmm table didn’t turn out right……anyway its a three-column table, with “microorganism” being the 1st column, and sample A and B being the other two columns.
