Pseudomonas
Note: This page may contain terms or definitions that are offensive or inappropriate for some readers.Pseudomonas A genus of gram-negative, nonsporeforming, rod-shaped bacteria. Motile species possess polar flagella. They are strictly aerobic, but some members do respire anaerobically in the presence of nitrate. Some species produce acids oxidatively from carbohydrates; none is fermentative and none photosynthetic. Members of the genus Pseudomonas cause a variety of infective diseases; some species cause disease of plants. One species, P. mallei, is a mammalian parasite, and is the causative agent of glanders, an infectious disease of horses that occasionally is transmitted to humans by direct contact. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most significant cause of hospital-acquired infections, particularly in predisposed patients with metabolic, hematologic, and malignant diseases. The spectrum of clinical disease ranges from urinary tract infections to septicemia, pneumonia, meningitis, and infections of postsurgical and posttraumatic wounds. See Meningitis, Pneumonia Pseudomonas[‚süd·ə′mōn·əs] (microbiology) A genus of gram-negative, motile, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped bacteria that cause a variety of infectious diseases in animals and humans (such as glanders and melioidosis) and in plants.

Most species are saprophytic, but some are pathogenic for plants and animals. P. aerugino´sa (which produces the pigments pyocyanin and fluorescein that give a characteristic blue color to the pustular discharge of some suppurative infections) is a major agent of severe or fatal nosocomial infections in debilitated patients. Some species are opportunistic pathogens in humans; these include P. alcali´genes, P. cepa´cia, P. fluores´cens, P. mal´lei (which also causes glanders in horses), P. maltophi´lia, P. pseudomal´lei, and P. stut´zeri.Pseudomonas (sū'dō-mō'nas), A genus of motile, polar-flagellate, non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic bacteria (family Pseudomonadaceae) containing straight or curved, but not helical, gram-negative rods that occur singly. The metabolism is respiratory, never fermentative. They occur commonly in soil and in freshwater and marine environments. Some species are plant pathogens. Others are involved in human infections. The type species is Pseudomonas aeruginosa. [pseudo- + G. monas, unit, monad] pseudomonas (so͞o′də-mō′nəs, so͞o-dŏm′ə-nəs)n. pl. pseudo·monades (-mŏn′ə-dēz′) Any of various gram-negative, rod-shaped, mostly aerobic flagellated bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas, commonly found in soil, water, and decaying matter, and including some plant and animal pathogens.Pseu·do·mo·nas (sūdŏ-mōnăs) A genus of motile, polar-flagellate, non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic bacteria (family Pseudomonadaceae) containing gram-negative rods that occur singly. The metabolism is oxidative. They occur commonly in soil and in freshwater and marine environments. Some species are plant pathogens. Others are involved in human infections. The type species is P. aeruginosa. [pseudo- + G. monas, unit, monad]Pseudomonas (soo-do-mo'nas) [? + monas, single] A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, motile bacilli with polar flagella. Most are saprophytic, living in soil and decomposing organic matter. Some produce blue and yellow pigments. Psuedomonas Aeruginosa: infection of the distal footPseudomonas aeruginosaA species that produces a distinctive blue-green pigment, grows readily in water, and may cause life-threatening infections in humans, including nosocomial pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and sepsis. It may also cause folliculitis, malignant otitis externa, and skin infections in patients who have suffered burns. See: illustrationPseudomonas cepaciaBurkholderia cepacia.Pseudomonas mallei See: BurkholderiaPseudomonas maltophilia See: Stenotrophomonas maltophiliamucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosaA variant of P. aeruginosa that resists both phagocytosis and antibiotic treatment by secreting a slimy protective coating (alginate slime). It is more virulent than nonmucoid-secreting forms of P. aeruginosa and often colonizes patients with bronchiectasis or cystic fibrosis. Pseudomonas oryzihabitansA gram-negative rod that can cause health care–related infections, esp. in catheterized, immunosuppressed, or critically ill patients. It was formerly known as Flavimonas oryzihabitans. Pseudomonas pseudomalleiBurkholderia pseudomallei.Pseudomonas A genus of GRAM NEGATIVE bacteria widely found in nature and responsible for much decomposition of organic matter. Pseudomonas species, especially P. aeruginosa , cause many serious, especially OPPORTUNISTIC, infections and produce a bluish-green pus.Pseu·do·mo·nas (sūdŏ-mōnăs) A genus of motile, polar-flagellate, non-spore-forming bacteria that occur commonly in soil and in fresh-water and marine environments. Some species that are involved in human infections. The type species is P. aeruginosa. [pseudo- + G. monas, unit, monad]Pseudomonas
