Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a microorganism of bacterial nature. Belongs to the class of gram-negative a-proteobacteria, capable of synthesizing aminoglycosides and exotoxins. The cultural activity of this microorganism is weakly expressed; symbiosis with actinomycetes is characteristic. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is characterized by the presence of fermentation of bile acids.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is classified as facultative anaerobes or aerobes, depending on the cultivation conditions. These microorganisms have high biochemical activity; they synthesize the enzymes sulfur, fermopsis, gelinase, mesocyanine I, acetyltransferase, alcohol dehydrogenase, D-galactoside aruducetoase, etc.
Pseudomonas (pseudomonas is a genus of gram-negative bacilli (rods), microaerophiles. These rods in smears have the appearance of convoluted rods (often horseshoe-shaped). The basis for all modern classification systems of Pseudomonas is the definition based on enzymatic activity, a set of sugars and other metabolic features.
