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 aeruginosa in Petri dish. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common encapsulated, Gram-negative, aerobic–facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium that can cause disease in plants and animals, including humans.
Pseudomonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria belonging to the family Pseudomonadaceae in the class Gammaproteobacteria.The 313 members of the genus [2] [3] demonstrate a great deal of metabolic diversity and consequently are able to colonize a wide range of niches. [4]
Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) blasted on to surfaces acts as an antifungal. Another antifungal solution applied after or without blasting by soda is a mix of hydrogen peroxide and a thin surface coating that neutralizes mold and encapsulates the surface to prevent spore release. Some paints are also manufactured with an added antifungal ...
Pseudomonas alliicola (Burkholder 1942) Starr and Burkholder 1942 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.
Pyocyanin (PCN −) is one of the many toxic compounds produced and secreted by the Gram negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Pyocyanin is a blue secondary metabolite, turning red below pH 4.9, with the ability to oxidise and reduce other molecules [2] and therefore kill microbes competing against P. aeruginosa as well as mammalian cells of the lungs which P. aeruginosa has infected ...
Pseudomonas syringae is a rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacterium with polar flagella. As a plant pathogen , it can infect a wide range of species, and exists as over 50 different pathovars , [ 2 ] all of which are available to researchers from international culture collections such as the NCPPB , ICMP , and others.
Pseudomonas fluorescens has multiple flagella, an extremely versatile metabolism, and can be found in the soil and in water.It is an obligate aerobe, but certain strains are capable of using nitrate instead of oxygen as a final electron acceptor during cellular respiration.
