Pseudomonas luteola

Pseudomonas luteola is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped, motile bacterium that can cause peritonitis, cellulitis, and bacteremia. It has also been shown to reduce, and hence de-color, azo dyes, and is capable of biosorption of certain heavy metal ions such as aluminium and chromium. Based on 16S rRNA analysis, P. luteola has been placed in the P. stutzeri group.
