A gamma-hemolytic Streptococcus that blackens bile esculin agar but does not grow in 6.5% NaCl broth is MOST likely:   show
🗑
show catalase production and coagulase test  
🗑
show bile esculin, PYR, bacitracin, and hippurate  
🗑
"Nutritionally deficient" streptococci are:   show

🗑
show acute glomerulonephritis  
🗑
A gram-pos coccus isolated from a blood culture has the following characteristics: optochin suscept-neg, bacitracin suscept-neg, bile esculin hydrolysis-neg, hippurate hydrolysis-pos, catalase-neg. The organism is MOST likely:   show
🗑
A beta-hemolytic streptococci that is bacitracin-sensitive and CAMP-negative is:   show
