    Strep diff: Strep: catalase -ve α-hemolytic: partial green hemolysis: optochin S  S. pneumoniae, optochin R  Viridans

    This document describes methods to identify different types of streptococci bacteria based on their hemolytic properties and antibiotic sensitivities. Streptococcus pneumoniae can be identified as alpha-hemolytic and optochin sensitive, while viridans streptococci are alpha-hemolytic but optochin resistant. Group A Streptococcus pyogenes is beta-hemolytic and bacitracin sensitive, whereas Group B Streptococcus agalactiae is beta-hemolytic but bacitracin resistant. Enterococcus faecalis is gamma-hemolytic and grows in 6.5% NaCl, unlike Streptococcus bovis.
