Question
This is a typical lab exam question. (Problem-solving, uses current topic.)
Your TA performed the antibiotic disc experiment using supplies from their research lab. The antibiotic discs had the year 2002 written on their containers.
Your TA grew a pure culture of unknown bacteria. They applied the culture to a fresh agar plate and applied the 2002 antibiotic discs to the plate and incubated it for growth. They found that the mystery bacteria species was resistant to all three antibiotic discs that were applied to the plate.
Are there any control groups that could be used to confirm or refute this multi-drug resistance? Describe them.

The mediums We used are wet mounts and motility adgars. Along with bacterias being k.pnemoniae(non motile) and p.mirabilis (motile). Also, the site is saying that I took this question from another site, this question is apart of my homework that I do not understand which medium cause interpretation issues with brownian movement.

- In this section you will present the results of all the tests that was done to identify your organism Enterobacter aerogenes (your observation). In the laboratory we tabulated our results and created a chart (ID Matrix). Here you are describing the result of each test (in your own words). Include the name of the Indicator used (if any). Color changes that represent positive/negative results must be mentioned here. Your organism is a Gram-negative organism (Enterobacter aerogenes) You must discuss all the IMViC tests and Hydrogen sulfide test in DETAIL. 1. Indole test 2. Methyl red test 3. Vogues-Proskauer test 4. Citrate Test 5.
