Pseudomonas has capsule.The Pseudomonas aeruginosa capsule, composed of polysaccharide alginate, is an important Pseudomonas virulence factor encountered primarily in cystic fibrosis.(http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=209741)
Cannot see a capsule under a light microscope. If viewed under an electron microscope , you can see a capsule
No. Bacteria cells do not have nuclei. I hope this answered your question!
yes
yes
no it cannot, it is nitrate reduction negative
i have ni have no clue your on your own pick up a book and figure it out
S. epidermidis also accounts for two of every five cases of prosthetic valve endocarditis. Prosthetic valve endocarditis is an infection that develops as a complication of the implantation of an artificial valve in the heart.
Staphylococcus is a coccus and so indiviual cells are round in shape. Groups of cells typically form grape like clusters because they divide along two planes rather than the chains formed by Streptococcus which only divide along one plane.
staph exists on the skin or inside the nostrils of 20-30% of healthy people. It is sometimes found in breast tissue, the mouth, and the genital, urinary, and upper respiratory tracts. staph bacteria are usually harmless.

Staphylococcus epidermidis belongs to the genus Staphylococcus. It is part of the human skin flora and is a non-motile bacterium.
Is stpylococcus epidermidis is largest
Staphylococcus Epidermidis does return a gram positive result on the citrate lab test. Gram stains will produce these results on slides.

Gram + cocci, facultative anaerobes, catalase 2) Most Staph reside harmlessly as normal flora of skin. 3) Staphylococcus epidermidis 4) Staphylococcus aureus - skin / wound infections, food poisoning 5) Staphylococcus saprophyticus - UTI
Yes it is. This test can be used to differentiate between S. aureus (which is positive) and S. epidermidis (which is negative).
