🧪 Answer Reveal: Poll Recall Question of the Day
Question: Which organism is bacitracin sensitive and PYR positive? ✅ Correct Answer: B) Streptococcus pyogenes 🧠 Explanation: Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Strep) is: • Bacitracin sensitive 🟢 • PYR positive 🧪 This combination is a classic identification clue used in the lab. 🔬 What about the other options? A) Staphylococcus aureus ❌ • Catalase positive, coagulase positive • NOT identified using bacitracin or PYR in this way C) Streptococcus agalactiae ❌ • Bacitracin resistant • PYR negative • Identified using CAMP test instead 💡 Quick Recall Tip: 🔥 “PYR = PYOGENES” 👉 If it’s PYR positive → think Strep pyogenes 🟢 Bacitracin sensitive = Group A Strep 👇 Did you get it right? Drop a 🔥 if you did!
