Pseudomonas infection refers to a disease caused by one of the species of the genus Pseudomonas. P. aeruginosa is a germ found in the environment and it is an opportunistic human pathogen most commonly infecting immunocompromised patients, such as those with cancer , diabetes , cystic fibrosis , [ 1 ] severe burns, AIDS , [ 2 ] or people who ...
Pseudomonas can, in rare circumstances, cause community-acquired pneumonias, [39] as well as ventilator-associated pneumonias, being one of the most common agents isolated in several studies. [40] Pyocyanin is a virulence factor of the bacteria and has been known to cause death in C. elegans by oxidative stress .
Pseudomonas oryzihabitans is a nonfermenting yellow-pigmented, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that can cause sepsis, peritonitis, endophthalmitis, and bacteremia. [1] It is an opportunistic pathogen of humans and warm-blooded animals that is commonly found in several environmental sources, from soil to rice paddies.
DUP MLA Diane Dodds called for an independent inquiry to take place and said figures showed a potentially dangerous bacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, was found in 459 water outlets in the ...
Pseudomonas fluorescens is a common Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium. [1] It belongs to the Pseudomonas genus ; 16S rRNA analysis as well as phylogenomic analysis has placed P. fluorescens in the P. fluorescens group within the genus, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] to which it lends its name.
Around 51% of Pseudomonas bacteria found in dairy processing plants are P. fluorescens, with 69% of these isolates possessing proteases, lipases, and lecithinases which contribute to degradation of milk components and subsequent spoilage. [49] Other Pseudomonas species can possess any one of the proteases, lipases, or lecithinases, or none at ...
Burkholderia gladioli is a species of aerobic gram-negative rod-shaped bacteria [1] that causes disease in both humans and plants. It can also live in symbiosis with plants and fungi [2] and is found in soil, water, the rhizosphere, and in the microbiome of many animals. It was formerly known as Pseudomonas marginata.
Burkholderia is a genus of Pseudomonadota whose pathogenic members include the Burkholderia cepacia complex, which attacks humans and Burkholderia mallei, responsible for glanders, a disease that occurs mostly in horses and related animals; Burkholderia pseudomallei, causative agent of melioidosis; and Burkholderia cepacia, an important pathogen of pulmonary infections in people with cystic ...
