Correct genus!

I thought of Vibrio cholerae before resorting to parahaemolyticus or vulnificus.

Few more comments into the future of getting this possibly wrong would have me guessing V. mimicus or V. alginolyticus just to cross off some list under the Vibrio genus.

And V. cholerae is the correct answer.

I have never seen what it looks like on the CHROMagar before this case.

This was fun, got me reading more about CHROMagar. I'm focused on the surgicopath side of things so subjects like microbio, clinical chem, and hematology will be a new exposure as my rotations were shifted recently.
