Hafnia is a genus of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria in the family Hafniaceae. H. alvei is a commensal of the human gastrointestinal tract and not normally pathogenic, but may cause disease in immunocompromised patients. It is often resistant to multiple antibiotics, including the aminopenicillins.
In a followed up policy report released on April 17, 2013, titled "10 X '20 Progress – Development of New Drugs Active Against Gram-Negative Bacilli: An Update From the Infectious Diseases Society of America", IDSA expressed grave concern over the weak pipeline of antibiotics to combat the growing ability of bacteria, especially the Gram ...
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.
Providencia rettgeri (commonly P. rettgeri), is a Gram negative bacterium that is commonly found in both water and land environments. P. rettgeri is in the genus Providencia, along with Providencia stuartii, Providencia alcalifaciens, and Providencia rustigianii. P. rettgeri can be incubated at 37 °C in nutrient agar or nutrient broth.
Gram-negative bacteria are bacteria that, unlike gram-positive bacteria, do not retain the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining method of bacterial differentiation. [1] Their defining characteristic is that their cell envelope consists of a thin peptidoglycan cell wall sandwiched between an inner ( cytoplasmic ) membrane and an outer ...
Simmons' citrate agar (not planted yet) Simmons' citrate agar is used for differentiating gram-negative bacteria on the basis of citrate utilization, [1] especially for distinguishing Gammaproteobacteria of the family Enterobacteriaceae or even between species of the same genus. [2]
Enterobacter cloacae is a member of the normal gut flora of many humans and is not usually a primary pathogen. [9] Some strains have been associated with urinary tract and respiratory tract infections in immunocompromised individuals.
Klebsiella granulomatis is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium of the genus Klebsiella [1] known to cause the sexually transmitted infection granuloma inguinale (or donovanosis). It was formerly called Calymmatobacterium granulomatis. [2] It is a non-motile aerobic bacillus with a non-sporulated capsule measuring 0.5 to 2.0 μm.
