The identification of microorganisms is crucial in various fields, including clinical diagnostics and food safety. This study focuses on the identification of an unknown bacterium through differential tests, ultimately concluding that the bacterium is Serratia marcescens. Multiple assays were conducted to analyze structural, culture, and biochemical characteristics, which confirmed the opportunistic pathogenic nature of S. marcescens, particularly in hospitalized patients.
