TBT: Biochemicals- catalase and coagulase

One of the very first—and still one of the most downloaded—episodes of Let’s Talk Micro dives into biochemicals and how they help us identify bacteria in the clinical lab.

What are biochemicals, and why are they so important in Clinical Microbiology? In this episode, I introduce two of the most commonly used tests: catalase and coagulase. Learn how these simple yet powerful reactions help distinguish organisms and guide diagnostic workups in the lab.
