Every one knows the famous mnemonic for urease positive organisms = PUNCH
P = Proteus
U = Ureaplasma
N = Nocardia
C = Cryptococcus
H = H.pylori
so it would be easy to remember the important oxidase positive organisms if we replace "U" of PUNCH by "V"
so PVNCH for Oxidase positive organisms;
P = Pseudomonas
V = Vibrio
N = Nisseria
C = Compylobacter
H = H.pylori
(Also don't forget that most gram negatives in general are Oxidase positive minus enterobacteriacea family)
