What Is Involved in Pseudomonas Treatment?
Pseudomonas, obligately aerobic, Gram-staining negative, bacillus-free, capsular-bacillus, rod-shaped or slightly curved. The bacterial cell size is (0.5 to 1) x (1.5 to 4) microns. With terminal flagella, can move. Some strains produce fluorescent pigments or (and) water-soluble pigments such as red, blue, yellow, and green, and do not ferment sugars.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
- Because it can produce green water-soluble pigments, it can be named green pus when infected. Also known as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, referred to as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It is one of the main pathogens of nosocomial infection. widely distributed. This bacterium is a conditional pathogen, usually a secondary infection, such as a large area burn wound infection, otitis media, urinary system infection, or even sepsis. It can cause necrotizing pneumonia and necrotizing enteritis in pigs, hemorrhagic pneumonia in mink and real squirrels and "green problems" in sheep. This bacterium is often found in traumatic pericarditis, calamus, bovine mastitis and bovine infertility in cattle. Experimental animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, mice and pigeons are susceptible. Small doses of bacteria cause local abscesses, and large doses of bacteria cause systemic infection and death.
Pseudomonas fluorescens
- P. fluorescens belongs to the group of fluorescent DNA homology of the rRNA I group of Pseudomonas, and is the most common microbial group in the rhizosphere of plants. It has a wide distribution, a large number, simple nutritional needs, fast reproduction, and competition. Features of strong colonization. Many countries in the world have reported that Pseudomonas fluorescens resistant to plant diseases has been isolated, and many strains can produce several active substances and resist various plant diseases. Its mechanism of action includes: the role of antibiotics, the nutritional competition of iron by ferritin, and effective rhizosphere colonization. With the widespread infiltration of molecular biology, by analyzing the genetic traits of these mechanisms of action and using genetic engineering to improve them, Pseudomonas fluorescens has a more attractive biocontrol effect.
- Hazard: Causes deterioration of refrigerated meat, eggs, milk and dairy products.
Pseudomonas malignans
- It is the pathogen of horse and human glanders, also known as glanders, which can be infected by mouth, respiratory tract or wound. Among the serological diagnostic methods used in the laboratory, complement binding is the most common and its specificity is also the highest. The diagnosis of equine infections can be carried out using (horse) mallein. Human gangrene is usually caused by direct contact with open gangrene-affected animals, or infected by inadvertent operation in the laboratory. It used to be fatal. It can now be treated with sulfa, oxytetracycline, and aureomycin.
Pseudomonas malignans
- Also known as Pseudomonas whitmore. Often resident in water and soil, can cause human glandular gangrene and infection of horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs, cats and other animals through trauma. Named for equine symptoms like equine gangrene. Sensitive to sulfa, tetracycline, kanamycin and neomycin. Common antigen with Pseudomonas malignans, cross-reactions in the bransonin test. [1]
