What is Lab 17 about?

The document discusses the different forms of bacteria on the skin, specifically focusing on Staphylococcus aureus (SA) and its growth on Mannitol Salt Agar (MSA) plates. MSA serves as a selective medium that inhibits most bacteria while allowing salt-tolerant species to grow, indicating potential pathogenicity through characteristics such as coagulase production. Additionally, antimicrobial susceptibility tests like Kirby Bauer or MIC can determine penicillin resistance in these bacteria.
