Abstract: | Background
Pseudomonas fluorescens is a ubiquitous Gram-negative bacterium frequently encountered in hospitals as a contaminant of injectable material and surfaces.
This psychrotrophic bacterium, commonly described as unable to grow at temperatures above 32°C, is now considered non pathogenic.
We studied a recently identified clinical strain of P. fluorescens biovar I, MFN1032, which is considered to cause human lung infection and can grow at 37°C in laboratory conditions. |
