The experiments were conducted to attempt to isolate and identify species of Staphylococcus from the skin and Streptococcus and Neisseria from the throat. I hypothesize that when we attempt to isolate the bacteria, what we will find is different species of Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Neisseria that part of the body’s normal flora. Within the experiment, we utilized a mannitol salt agar but, we did not performed a beta hemolysis test, we did not conducted a coagulase test, and we did not utilize a Mueller Hinton test for Staphylococcus. We did utilize a blood agar test to differentiate between alpha and beta hemolytic species of streptococcus and a gram stain and an oxidase test to confirm Neisseria that was isolate. What we found was
