CBA = Columbia agar with 5% sheep blood, TSA = Trypticase soy agar, TSAB = Trypticase soy agar with 5% sheep blood.
c
Low discrimination between
L. innocua/L.welshimeri
reported by VITEK 2; supplemental tests were conducted to report final identification.
d
Low discrimination between
L.seeligeri/ivanovii/welshimeri
reported by VITEK 2; supplemental tests were conducted to report final identification.
e
NT = Not tested. Isolate was not identified as Gram positive and thus not tested on the VITEK 2 GP card.
f
Low discrimination between
S. aureus/S. intermedius
reported by VITEK 2; supplemental tests were conducted to report final identification.
