Perfect... I undarstant many things here... Nice explanation Wish best for you
not enough details, like the fast staph. is Catalase-positive and non motile . more details needed.
This set of lectures on Staph were very generalized and did not cover the other Staph bacteria commonly seen on STEP 1 (i.e. saprophyticus and epidermidis). This seems to be a common theme of not going deep enough to cover material necessary for STEP, yet advertising that you all cover enough material for STEP 1.
