Thick Gram-positive bacilli but become Gram-negative with age or stain unevenly; rods are straight or curved, occurring singly or in pairs, Can cause necrotizing fasciitis and gangrene, Patients who get an infection typically have neutropenia, Club-shaped, Tennis-racket, Drumstick-shaped rods, Spores that are oval and terminal or subterminal, Gram-positive bacilli, becoming Gram-negative with age (>24 hours), which occur singly and in pairs, Gram-positive diphtheroid rod that looks like "clubs", "V-shapes", "Chinese Letters", or "drumsticks", often in palisade formation (side-by-side), Fastidious Gram-negative bacilli (short rods, may not stain completely in the middle), Tiny pinpoint, dry, hazy, graycolonies that tend to "stick" to the agar, Greenish discoloration underneath the colonies, Found in the human mouth and upper respiratory tract flora, Can cause bite wound infections, respiratory infections (especially in patients with CF), infections associated with cancers of the head and neck, diabetics are prone to infection, IV drug users are prone to infection, Part of the HACEK group of bacteria (culture-negative endocarditis and 3% of all cases of infective endocarditis in those with poor oral hygiene or periodontal disease), Treatment consists of the Penicillins, Cephalosporins or Tetracyclines, May be carried by and cause infection in Cystic Fibrosis patients, Nitrate reduction negative (a few are positive), Good growth on blood and chocolate agars but not on MacConkey agar, Pale yellow colonies surrounded by gray discoloration, Colistin-resistant but vancomycin-susceptible, Occasionally causes infections from contaminated venous lines, contaminated water or dialysate or other fluids, nosocomial pneumonia, endocarditis, post-surgical infections, bacteremia, meningitis in immunocompromised adults, soft tissue sepsis, necrotizing fasciitis, Looking for the ability, or inability, to ferment lactose and convert it into gas (represented by cracks or bubbles) an acid (usually a color change by a color indicator), Production of H2S gas (represented by a black pigment), Ability to hydrolyze urea (represented by a color change to bright fuchsia), Motility testing to determine whether or not they are motile or non-motile, Testing to determine whether the bacteria possesses the ability to alkalinize or acidify the agar, Water testing (millipore) for contamination, Part of the normal flora of the human gut (GI tract/intestines), Can cause opportunistic urinary and respiratory tract infections, Part of the Group D Streptococcus family (see Streptococcus Group D below), Part of the human commensal flora of the GI tract, Can cause life-threatening nosocomial infections, Many strains are highly antibiotic-resistant, Also causes dental infections in root canals or that are associated with the need for one, Weakly catalase positive or catalase negative, Infections include infectious endocarditis, UTI, septicemia, meningitis, respiratory, ear, catheter-associated, Commensal flora of the human GI tract that is occasionally associated with infective endocarditis, meningitis,bloodstream, bacteremia, sepsis, wound, surgical, catheter-associatedor UTI, Vancomycin-resistant strains are common and are called VRE. The result can be alpha, beta, or gamma hemolysis. Several species, most notable E. cloacae , E. sakazakii , E. aerogenes , E. agglomerans and E. gergoviae , are opportunistic pathogens of animals and humans; they are not considered to enteric pathogens.

The genus Enterobacter is more specifically a nosocomial opportunistic pathogen and is sought out to be one of the many key causes for extraintestinal infections next to E. coli. Medium: Trypticase Soy Agar with 5% Sheep Blood (BAP) GROWTH CONDITIONS . Post operation but prior to carbapenem therapy, a carbapenem sensitive strain of E. aerogenes was extracted from the bile, abdominal dopsy and blood. Many bacteria can produce hydrogen through fermentation at a neutral pH, and E. aerogenes is no exception. Similarly, the ompA gene of E. sakazakii had sequence identities of 86% and 88% at the nucleic acid and amino acid levels. B. cereus food poisoning may occur when foods are prepared. Chen, Hao, Ying Zhang, Ya-Gang Chen, Yun-Song Yu, and Shu-Sen Zheng. Hemolysis in immune rabbits of autologous erythrocytes modified with common enterobacterial antigen. Luxuriant growth with blackening of the medium. The Dienes phenomenon: competition and territoriality in Swarming Proteus mirabilis.

Leclercq, A., Wanegue, C., & Baylac, P. (2002). Bailey, W.R. and E.G. 6 (1995): 571-574. Objective: To investigate antibacterial properties of the terrestrial fern Lygodium flexuosum (L. flexuosum) obtained from Kalahandi district, Odisha against enteric- and uro-pathogenic bacteria. In the laboratory, growth of Enterobacter isolates is expected to be detectable in 24 hours or less.Enterobacter species grow rapidly on selective (ie, MacConkey) and nonselective (ie, sheep blood) agars.
