Background Pseudomonal species have been found in soil, water, plants, and animals; Pseudomonas aeruginosa colonization reportedly occurs in more than 50% of humans, and P aeruginosa is the most common pseudomonal species.Pseudomonas is a clinically significant and opportunistic pathogen, often causing nosocomial infections.ackground. In 1882, Gessard first discovered Pseudomonas, a strictly aerobic, gram-negative bacterium of relatively low virulence. The organism is ubiquitous, with a predilection to moist environments, primarily as waterborne and soilborne organisms.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa in Healthcare Settings Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas infection is caused by strains of bacteria found widely in the environment; the most common type causing infections in humans is called Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Serious Pseudomonas infections usually occur in people in the hospital and/or with weakened immune systems.

Clostridium species (Clostridium perfringens, C. butyricum, C. clostridioforme, C. innocuum, C. ramosum, C. septicum, C. sordellii, C. tertium) Clostridium sordellii and C. septicum posses susceptibility similar to C. perfringens, although there are occasional strains resistant to extended spectrum penicillins and clindamycin. Clostridium tertium displays resistance to third generation cephalosporins (83% resistance to ceftriaxone) (3, 21, 27).

Pseudomonas putida Pseudomonas putida is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, saprotrophic soil bacterium. Based on 16S rRNA analysis, P. putida was taxonomically confirmed to be a pseudomonas species (sensu stricto) and placed, along with several other species, in the P. putida group, to which it lends its name.ecause it is a living organism, the patent was disputed and brought before the United States Supreme Court in the historic court case Diamond v. Chakrabarty which the inventor, Ananda Mohan Chakrabarty, won. It demonstrates a very diverse metabolism, including the ability to degrade organic solvents such as toluene.

Project Information The dimorphic fungi are phylogenetically related pathogens and include several species: Coccidioides, Paracoccidioides, Blastomyces, Lacazia loboi and Histoplasma.n the soil, both Coccidioides species produce hyphae and mitospores, and both are specifically adapted to live in mammals, including humans. When mitospores are inhaled, they enlarge to make spherules, which divide internally to make endospores.

Pseudomonas fluorescens It belongs to the Pseudomonas genus; 16S rRNA analysis has placed P. fluorescens in the P. fluorescens group within the genus, to which it lends its name.he word Pseudomonas means 'false unit', being derived from the Greek words pseudo (Greek: ψευδο 'false') and monas (Latin: monas, fr. Greek: μονάς/μονάδα 'a single unit'). The word was used early in the history of microbiology to refer to germs.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infections Pseudomonas is a gram-negative rod that belongs to the family Pseudomonadaceae. More than half of all clinical isolates produce the blue-green pigment pyocyanin. Pseudomonas often has a characteristic sweet odor. These pathogens are widespread in nature, inhabiting soil, water, plants, and animals (including humans).

- Through additional revisions, the genus Yersinia has grown to include eleven species (2, 9, 10, 51), three of which are potentially pathogenic to humans: Y. pestis, Y. pseudotuberculosis, and Y. enterocolitica. Of these, Y. enterocolitica is most important as a cause of foodborne illness.irulent strains of Yersinia also invade mammalian cells such as HeLa cells in tissue culture (29). However, strains that have lost other virulent properties retain HeLa invasiveness, because the invasive phenotype for mammalian cells is encoded by chromosomal loci.

- MICROBIOLOGY. Members of the S. anginosus group are gram-positive, catalase-negative cocci (like other members of the genus Streptococcus). They are non-motile, facultative anaerobes that demonstrate variable hemolysis patterns (alpha, beta, or gamma) on sheep blood agar [ 17 ].e named these organisms  Streptococcus milleri  in honor of the microbiologist W. D. Miller [ 1,7 ]. The organisms were subsequently recognized as normal flora of the human oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract with the ability to cause abscesses and systemic infections [ 8-12 ].

Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis: two immunologically distinct species. Bordetella pertussis and Bordetella parapertussis are closely related species. Both are responsible for outbreaks of whooping cough in humans and produce similar virulence factors, with the exception of pertussis toxin, specific to B. pertussis.

- Practice Essentials. Pseudomonas aeruginosa has become an important cause of infection, especially in patients with compromised host defense mechanisms. It is the most common pathogen isolated from patients who have been hospitalized longer than 1 week, and it is a frequent cause of nosocomial infections.seudomonas aeruginosa has become an important cause of infection, especially in patients with compromised host defense mechanisms.

- The understanding of this prevalence and the mechanisms of antimicrobial resistance by P. aeruginosa is important in optimizing treatments against pseudomonal infections. P. aeruginosa, commonly known as ‘the blue pus organism’, is a versatile, non-fermentative, and aerobic non-enteric Gram-negative bacterial pathogen.

- This ability of fimbriae to stick to epithilial cells leads to many diseases transmitted via mucous membranes, including gonorrhoeae, bacterial meningitis and infections of internal medical devices and indwelling catheters. The following are descriptions of three species of pathogenic bacteria that rely on their fimbriae to cause disease.
