An Interesting Case of Cellulitis Caused by Shewanella [PDF]
Cureus, 2020 Shewanella species are opportunistically pathogenic, gram-negative bacilli that are part of marine microflora. Infection caused by Shewanella species in humans is rare and mostly acquired after direct contact with seawater or ingestion of raw seafood. The exact pathogenesis remains unclear.

Septicemia and Stroke- A Mortiferous Presentation of Shewanella algae Cellulitis
Online Journal of Health & Allied Sciences, 2023 A patient with no comorbidities presented with stroke. On evaluation, right lower limb cellulitis and compartment syndrome was seen. Investigations revealed sepsis. Subsequent day culture of pus and blood revealed the pathogen to be Shewanella algae. Our

Recent Advances in the Siderophore Biology of Shewanella [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Despite the abundance of iron in nature, iron acquisition is a challenge for life in general because the element mostly exists in the extremely insoluble ferric (Fe3+) form in oxic environments. To overcome this, microbes have evolved multiple iron uptake strategies, a common one of which is through the secretion of siderophores, which are iron ...
