wow..all my freinds here..nice to be here again..EEE is the answer. Staphylococcus epidermidis may be a contaminant in this case, particularly since it appears in only 1 of 4 bottles. Proper technique is needed to prevent contamination by skin flora. Staphylococcus aureus is capable of producing infection.
