Treatment and Management of Shewanella algae Necrotizing Cellulitis. [PDF]
CureusShewanella algae is considered an emerging novel pathogenic cause of severe skin infections. The organism is a gram-negative motile bacillus commonly found in marine environments. While the more common causes of skin and soft tissue infections include Staphylococcus aureus, beta-hemolytic Streptococci, and/or Vibrio vulnificus, S.

Regulation of colony morphology and biofilm formation in Shewanella algae. [PDF]
Microb Biotechnol, 2021 Summary Bacterial colony morphology can reflect different physiological stages such as virulence or biofilm formation. In this work we used transposon mutagenesis to identify genes that alter colony morphology and cause differential Congo Red (CR) and Brilliant Blue G (BBG) binding in ...
