Several patients in the burn care unit at a major hospital have experienced wound infections with a gram-negative bacillus demonstrating increased antimicrobial resistance. The colonies are large and grey on BAP and clear on MAC. Based on the additional biochemical reactions below, what is the most likely identification of the organism causing the outbreak of infections in the unit? Adonitol = negative Citrate = peacock blue Indole = positive Inositol = positive Gelatin = negative Maltose = negative Motility = positive Moeller Ornithine = yellow Moeller Base = yellow PAD = positive TSI = K/A Urea = negative VP = negative

Given the following biochemical reactions, identify the organism: TSI = yellow / yellow Indole = neg Motility = pos Citrate = pos DNAse = neg MR / VP = neg / pos Moeller ornithine = purple Moeller lysine = yellow Moeller base = yellow PAD = neg
