S2 Week 11

This week I have been doing the motility and FTM tests on my bacteria (alongside with the oxidase and catalase but mostly FTM and motility). I honesly forgot to take pictures of the oxidase and catalase test. So if you did not know, FTM is also called Thioglycollate broth, which determines what the oxygen requirement for the bacteria. While doing the FTM tests, I noticed most were aerobic or faculative anaerobe but a few were aerotolerant anaerobes which was really really cool. The bacteria is most likely turning out to be Propionibacterium but there is traces of other possible bacteria.
