OX+ normally means the bacterium contains cytochrome c oxidase (also known as Complex IV) and can therefore use oxygen for energy production by converting O 2 to H 2 O 2 or H 2 O with an electron transfer chain. The Pseudomonadaceae are typically OX+. [1] The Gram-negative diplococci Neisseria and Moraxella are oxidase-positive. [2]
Moraxella is a genus of gram-negative bacteria in the family Moraxellaceae.It is named after the Swiss ophthalmologist Victor Morax.The organisms are short rods, coccobacilli, or as in the case of Moraxella catarrhalis, diplococci in morphology, with asaccharolytic, oxidase-positive, and catalase-positive properties.

Inoculating the fluid from infected joints directly into blood culture vials can enhance the chances of an accurate culture, but extended culture times are not helpful. [2] The organism has also been known as Moraxella kingae. Kingella kingae is oxidase-positive, catalase-negative, and beta-hemolytic.
Bacillus subtilis (/ b ə ˈ s ɪ l. ə s s u b ˈ t iː. l i s /), [3] [4] known also as the hay bacillus or grass bacillus, is a gram-positive, catalase-positive bacterium, found in soil and the gastrointestinal tract of ruminants, humans and marine sponges.
Furthermore, fundamental differences between these two species are again shown, as serological testing reveals N. flavescens' lack of cross-agglutination. [2] At the same time, biochemical testing distinguishes Neisseria flavescens from other gram-negative diplococci , with N. flavescens being DNase negative, weakly positive to Superoxol, and ...
Campylobacter jejuni is a species of pathogenic bacteria that is commonly associated with poultry, and is also often found in animal feces.This species of microbe is one of the most common causes of food poisoning in Europe and in the US, with the vast majority of cases occurring as isolated events rather than mass outbreaks.
Vibrio spp. are facultative anaerobes that test positive for oxidase and do not form spores. [4] [5] All members of the genus are motile. They are able to have polar or lateral flagellum with or without sheaths. [4] [6] Vibrio species typically possess two chromosomes, which is unusual for bacteria.
