PSEUDOMONAS PERTUCINOGENA
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Pseudomonas |
| Species: | Pseudomonas pertucinogena |
| Description: | Gram-negative, non-encapsulated, asporogenous, straight rods. Soma size was about 0.4 x 1.1 μm. Cells of both strains from solid and liquid media were motile and polar monotrichous. The flagellar morphology of each strain.Strains produced a slight, homogeneous turbidity in brain heart infusion broth after 24 h at 30°C. The turbidity increased after 2 days of incubation, but the broth did not become as turbid as that of a 24-h-old culture of P. aeruginosa. |
| Synonyms: | |
| Source: | Although the sources of isolation of the strains were not recorded, their identification as strains of B. pertussis suggests that they were isolated from the human respiratory tract. |
| Pathogenicity: | Dermal necrosis in guinea pigs appeared at 24 h after injection of ultrasonically disrupted cell suspensions of strains. |
