Micrococcus is a genus of bacteria in the Micrococcaceae family. Micrococcus occurs in a wide range of environments, including water, dust, and soil. Micrococci have Gram-positive spherical cells ranging from about 0.5 to 3 micrometers in diameter and typically appear in tetrads.
Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) samples in ultraviolet light. Emission of orange fluorescence indicates the presence of mycobacteria. The samples without fluorescence in this image still reflect some light from the others. Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) is intended for the culture, detection and recovery of mycobacteria.
Reports of gastrointestinal illness began in April 1993; however, studies occurring after the outbreak confirmed that there were echoes of the epidemic beyond initial contamination as the population contracted the illness through secondary transmission. [8] This resulted in negative public sentiment toward Milwaukee Water Works.
Micrococcus luteus is a Gram-positive to Gram-variable, nonmotile, tetrad-arranging, pigmented, saprotrophic coccus bacterium in the family Micrococcaceae. [1] It is urease and catalase positive. An obligate aerobe , M. luteus is found in soil, dust, water and air, and as part of the normal microbiota of the mammalian skin.

Brachybacterium conglomeratum is a species of Gram positive, facultatively anaerobic, whitish yellow to pale brown pigmented bacterium.The cells are coccoid during the stationary phase, and irregular rods during the exponential phase. [1]
Kocuria varians is a gram-positive species of bacteria in the genus Kocuria. [4] [5] It has been isolated from milk, [2] [6] meat, [7] skin, soil, [8] and beach sand. [9]It is 0.9 to 1.5 micrometers in diameter, and occurs in clusters, which can be up to 4 millimeters in diameter [8] and are yellow. [9]
Kocuria is a genus of gram-positive bacteria. Kocuria is named after Miloslav Kocur, a Czech microbiologist. It has been found in the milk of water deer and reindeer. [3] Cells are coccoid, resembling Staphylococcus and Micrococcus, and can group in pairs, chains, tetrads, cubical arrangements of eight, or irregular clusters.
