Citrobacter koseri, formerly known as Citrobacter diversus, is a Gram-negative non-spore forming, rod-shaped bacterium. It is a facultative anaerobe capable of aerobic respiration . It is motile via peritrichous flagella . [ 2 ]
[10] Toxigenic C. freundii appears to be rare, and its main influence on human health is as an opportunistic pathogen. [10] As such, C. freundii causes a wide range of illnesses, including infections of the urinary system, respiratory tract, wounds, circulation, and other sites in immunocompromised patients.
Citrobacter is a genus of Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped [2] coliform bacteria of the Enterobacteriaceae family. Citrobacter spp. cause opportunistic infections (including urinary tract infections , gastroenteritis , and bacteremia).
Some strains have been associated with urinary tract and respiratory tract infections in immunocompromised individuals. It is a high risk AmpC producer and treatment with cefepime is recommended by the IDSA if causing disease rather than simply colonising. [10] Treatment using cefepime and gentamicin has been reported. [11]
Citrobacter amalonaticus is a Gram-negative species of bacteria, a known human pathogen: it can cause neonatal meningitis and potentially gastroenteritis. [1] It has been known to infect the urinary tract.
