Hospital Acquired

Pseudomonas aeruginosa , a Gram-negative bacterium that causes severe hospital-acquired infections, is grouped as an ESKAPE ( Enterococcus faecium, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Enterobacter species) pathogen because of its extensive drug resistance phenotypes and effects on human health worldwide. Five multidrug resistant P. aeruginosa strains isolated from wounded military personnel were sequenced and annotated in this work.

Polysaccharide Layer

The uptake of molybdenum by certain bacteria hinders its role as a trace metal in the micronutrients for plant growth. The binding of molybdenum by the Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, PAO1, has been investigated. A molybdenum complex of uronic acid, which forms in the extracellular polysaccharide layer (slime), was isolated and characterized by a variety of techniques. Comparisons with 'mimic' compounds of uronic acids suggest that Pseudomonas aeruginosa, PAO1, produces a binuclear, di-oxo-bridged magnesium salt MgMo2O4(C6H8O7)2.5H2O; this indicates the important role of uronic acids in metallic uptake by bacteria.

Abstract Extensive applications of pesticides have led to the contamination of ecosystem. Therefore, the isolation of new pesticide degrading bacteria is important. For the biodegradation of α-endosulfan and α-cypermethrin, new bacteria isolates were isolated from grasshopper (Poecilimon tauricola). According to different tests, these isolated bacteria were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa B5, Acinetobacter johnsonii B6, Acinetobacter schindleri B7, Bacillus megaterium B9 and Brevibacillus parabrevis B12. The first two of these bacteria have been isolated as those that can use only α-endosulfan and the last two only use α-cypermethrin. Moreover, A. schindleri B7 was determined to be able to degrade both pesticides. When glucose was added to non-sulfur medium containing α-endosulfan (100 mg/L) and minimal salt medium containing α-cypermethrin (100 mg/L), both pesticide degradation and bacterial growth was increased. As a result, A. schindleri, a new gram negative bacterium, can inevitably be used in the biological treatment of environments exposed to pesticides.

Pathogen Diagnosis

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a highly versatile environmental Gram-negative bacterium that can be isolated from a wide range of habitats, including soil, marshes, and the ocean, as well as from plant and animal tissues. It is resistant to many disinfectants and antibiotics, giving it a selective advantage in hospitals. It rarely causes infection in the healthy host but is a major opportunistic pathogen. Diagnosis is usually straightforward when the organism is cultured from samples collected from normally sterile sites, but is often challenging when infection is suspected in non-sterile sites such as a catheterized urinary tract, burns, or skin ulcers, because P. aeruginosa may be either a pathogen or an innocent bystander. Treatment can be challenging as P. aeruginosa is intrinsically resistant to a broad range of antimicrobials.

Micro Organisms

Bacteria acquire iron through a highly specific mechanism involving iron-chelating molecules termed siderophores. The Gram-negative bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa can utilize siderophores produced by other micro-organisms to facilitate iron uptake. Here we show that a P. aeruginosa strain deficient in siderophore production can use the Vibrio cholerae siderophore vibriobactin as an iron source. In addition, we identified a P. aeruginosa gene, PA4156 (fvbA), encoding a protein highly homologous to the V. cholerae vibriobactin receptor (ViuA). A P. aeruginosa mutant in the two endogenous siderophores (pyoverdine and pyochelin) and in fvbA was unable to utilize vibriobactin as an iron source. Additionally, preliminary analyses revealed the involvement of vibriobactin, Fur protein and an IclR-type regulator, FvbR (PA4157), in fvbA regulation.

Pseudomonas is a Gram-negative bacterium frequently recovered from environmental sources, particularly an aquatic environment. Epidemics of skin rash,1 otitis externa,2 isolated cases of urinary tract infections,3 and pneumonia4 have been associated with whirlpools contaminated by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This report describes P aeruginosa otitis externa in an infant associated with a contaminated infant bath sponge. CASE REPORT K.E., a 3-month-old, first born, healthy girl was seen for drainage from the left ear. She was listless and febrile and had a moderate amount of whitish drainage from the left ear canal. There was no discharge from the right ear canal, but on examination there was right otitis media.
