I'm looking for the O/F test result for S. epidermidis. I've consulted the Bergey's manual for bacteriology and I can not seem to find it. For the same organism, S. epidermidis, I'm also looking for the test result for Sorbitol.
If you can provide this information to me, that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much, your understanding and co-operation in this matter is, aforementioned, greatly appreciated
