<unk>  tests performed for suspected erythrasma include those that confirm a Corynebacterium minitissimum infection. The most common<unk>  test is a Wood's lamp examination; coral-red fluorescence is indicative of Corynebacterium minitissimum. A culture may be performed to specify the pathogen; Corynebacterium minutissimum will present as non-hemolytic smooth colonies that are 1-1.5mm in size. Gram stain analysis of Corynebacterium minitissimum may reveal slightly curved bacterial rods that display violet or blue coloration, indicative of gram positive.
