You find that the child has enlarged lymph nodes in the groin region and a few blisters at the location of scratches found on the girl’s leg. The child says the scratches came from a cat that she was playing with outside of her house. You have your suspicions the illness is Cat Scratch Disease but because the number of cases reported each year is low you will need to assess the bacteria for confirmation. The suspected infecting bacteria, Bartonella henselae, are Gram-negative bacilli with a polar flagellum - answer the following questions associated with identification of the bacterial sample taken from your patient (Fill in the blanks). Bartonella henselae would stain [color] (color) due to the [wall] (choose one: thin / thick) peptidoglycan layer. Once stained, you will be able to determine if the bacteria is bacilli under the microscope if it is [shape] (choose one: sphere / rod) -shaped. During a gram stain, [decolor] is used as a decolorizing agent to remove the primary stain [primary], and [second], the secondary stain, will be picked up by the decolorized, Gram negative bacteria.
