@Damianatrix @nmoore07 @ASCLS Be interesting to see what it is. I’d be surprised if it were E. Coli based on what looks like yellow pigment but Escherichia Hermanii can have a yellow pigment and would be a lactose fermenter. Might be a possibility.

[Chris Doern @RVAgRAMStain]

@nmoore07 Looks yellow on blood agar to me and like a lactose fermenter. I’ll play the contrarian and suggest Cronobacter (formerly Enterobacter) sakazakii.

@InfectiousNeo It is without question my favorite publication. I think I might have it highlighted on my CV.

[Chris Doern @RVAgRAMStain]

The history of microbiology is full of fascinating tales. Our ID Fellow @InfectiousNeo (now rockstar neonatologist) dug into the discovery of the Gram stain, a great story. It’s got everything, academic rivalry, scientific controversy, and a serendipitous lab accident.

[Chris Doern @RVAgRAMStain]

@InfectiousNeo Right there with you. I take every opportunity to tell this story. I particularly like the part where they call off the dispute in a peer reviewed publication...”The attacks, let them cease!”
