Please help!! I cant figure out my unknown, or get even remotely close to it : ( I think I messed up on my streak for isolation and did not do my biological testing with a pure culture sample.
My results are:

The first results are for my unknown, the 2nd results are for Proteus Penneri. That was the closest I could get to my unknown.
Professor told me it was oxidase and lipase -, otherwise I would have gone with Mirabilis or Vulgaris.
Also my antibiotics showed my unknown was sensitive to Chloramphenicol and i think lincomycin, and resistant to triple sulfa, penecillin, and i think tetracycline.
