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,
