Streptococcus mucilaginous is a cohabitant in the minor airways of a victim with bronchiectasis. Stomatococcus mucilaginosus is categorized as a distinct genus in the family Micrococcaceae. It is a coagulase-negative, non-spore-forming encapsulated, non-motile coccus and Gram-positive and is always in pairs. It can be effortlessly confused morphologically with the other organisms of genera Staphylococcus and Micrococcus. As this bacterium fits the oral flora, mouth ulcerations are a gateway of access, particularly if neutropenia grows. The organism was recognized based upon programmed identification daises, phenotypic features, and biochemical tests. Gram stain exposed Gram-positive cocci that remained catalase negative and produced gluey colonies that were grey or whitish in color, round, smooth and nonhemolytic. Remel Bacticard strep responses shown positive outcomes for LAP, esculin and ferric citrate (ESC)PYR, The BD Phoenix computerized microbiology scheme for ID and antimicrobial vulnerability testing was used and shown a ninety-nine percent assurance value for Stomatococcus mucilaginosa identification.
