I had a bacterial unknown of M. luteus in my microbiology lab. M. luteus is a Gram positive cocci (as seen by a gram stain). A good definitive test for Gram + cocci is the catalase test. M. luteus is catalase positive. Then a nitrate test can be performed to determine that M. luteus is nitrate negative.
Those alone should be enough to confirm M. luteus.

Why is biochemical testing important?
A biochemical test is a test used mainly in microbiology with the main intention of detecting enzyme production. Biochemical tests can also, when used correctly, further narrow the search when looking at identifying an unknown microbe. The biochemical tests can narrow the search down to a specific genus and possibly even the species of the unknown microbe. In most cases when identification of an unknown microbe is needed, the microbe will usually be a bacterium.

What are the biochemical tests to confirm staphylococcus?
Streptococci are not differentiated by biochemical tests, but rather by hemolysis reaction (beta Strep or alpha Strep) and sero-group (as in Group E Strep).Further, streptococcus is also identified by thr following tests:1. Coagulase.2. Haemolysin (It lyses 4% RBC suspension)3. Fibrinolysin (It can dissolve a fibrin clot)4. Strp. Pneumoniae also gives a positive bile solubility test.5. It ferments Inulin (A sugar)
How is porphyria diagnosed?
Urine test, blood plasma tests, biochemical tests to determine type of porphyria, enzyme test.
