Background
- Non-encapsulated, non-spore-forming, Gram-negative bacillus with yellow pigment
- Member of the Enterobacteriaceae
- Causes disease mostly in plants, and rarely in humans
- Found on plants, on buckwheat, and in human feces
- About 20 species, of which human diseases have been described with P. agglomerans, P. brenneri, P. conspicua, P. eucrina, and P. septica
Management
- Reliably susceptible to meropenem and amikacin1
- Often susceptible to chloramphenicol, doxycycline, gentamicin, cotrimoxazole, ceftriaxone, and piperacillin-tazobactam
- Frequently resistant to ampicillin and amoxicillin-clavulanic acid
