Guided bench reasoning
Choose what you know. Review the next bench move.
Start with what is already available from the specimen, Gram stain, primary plates, and early bench tests. Then build a suggested workup path without treating it as a final organism ID.
Pick one clue per row.Three observations are enough for an initial path; more clues make the guidance sharper.

Start with context, purity, Gram reaction, and morphology. The tool works best when the first branch point is clear.
