Overview

  • Pseudomonas oleovorans is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic, motile, coccobacillus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 63.5%. Pseudomonas oleovorans is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Lee1941; Saha2010; Palleroni2005bBergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from clinical sources (blood, sinus - CCUG) and human faeces. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread. Is a rare opportunistic pathogen. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.
