Shewanella algae and Shewanella putrefaciens: clinical and microbiological characteristics [PDF]
The occurrence of the two Shewanella species found in clinical specimens, Shewanella algae and Shewanella putrefaciens, correlates with the temperature and salinity of seawater. This means that Shewanella infections occur in warm climates or during especially warm summers in temperate climates.

Shewanella putrefaciens: a rare cause of purulent otorrhea !
Shewanella putrefaciens is a Gram-negative, non-fermenting, motile and oxidase-positive bacillus. Its incrimination in human pathology is very rare with a resurgence of Shewanella infections in recent years.We report the first case in Morocco of a purulent otorrhea caused by Shewanella putrefaciens, rebel to conventional treatment occurring in a 25 ...

Organoarsenical Biotransformations by Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]
Microbes play a critical role in the global arsenic biogeocycle. Most studies have focused on redox cycling of inorganic arsenic in bacteria and archaea. The parallel cycles of organoarsenical biotransformations are less well characterized. Here we describe organoarsenical biotransformations in the environmental microbe Shewanella putrefaciens.

Introduction: Shewanella spp. are Gram-negative, motile bacilli, whose most important phenotypic characteristic is the production of hydrogen sulphide. The clinically relevant pathogens to humans are S. algae and S. putrefaciens.

Pyogenic Flexor Tenosynovitis Caused by Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]
Flexor tenosynovitis is a surgical emergency due to the risk of tendon necrosis which can lead to subsequent amputation. We report a case of flexor tenosynovitis with Shewanella putrefaciens as the implicated organism, though the patient's mechanism of penetrating trauma did not involve a marine exposure. Shewanella are Gram negative bacilli associated

Composition of Lipopolysaccharides from Alteromonas putrefaciens (Shewanella putrefaciens) [PDF]
Lipopolysaccharides from eight strains of Alteromonas putrefaciens (Shewanella putrefaciens) representing four groups defined by DNA-DNA homology studies have been compared. All products were of the R-type, lacking a polymeric side chain. In each case lipid A was based on glucosamine and contained a complex range of fatty acids.

[A rare cause of pneumonia: Shewanella putrefaciens].
Shewanella putrefaciens is a gram-negative, non-fermentative, oxidase positive, motile bacillus that produces hydrogen sulphide. It is found widely in the nature especially in marine environments. Although it is accepted as saprophytic, different clinical syndromes, most commonly skin or soft tissue infections, have been associated with S.putrefaciens,

Reduction of ferric green rust by Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]
To reduce carbonated ferric green rust (GR*) using an iron respiring bacterium and obtain its reduced homologue, the mixed Fe(II)-Fe(III) carbonated green rust (GR).The GR* was chemically synthesized by oxidation of the GR and was incubated with Shewanella putrefaciens cells at a defined [Fe(III)]/[cell] ratio.

Shewanella putrefaciens, a rare human pathogen: A review from a clinical perspective
Shewanella putrefaciens is a gramnegative, facultatively anaerobic, rod shaped bacterium. It belongs to the class of the Gammaproteobacteria and was first described in 1931. S.

Anaerobic electron acceptor chemotaxis in Shewanella putrefaciens [PDF]
Shewanella putrefaciens MR-1 can grow either aerobically or anaerobically at the expense of many different electron acceptors and is often found in abundance at redox interfaces in nature. Such redox interfaces are often characterized by very strong gradients of electron acceptors resulting from rapid microbial metabolism.
