Achromobacter xylosoxidans (formerly Alcaligenes xylosoxidans) is a Gram-negative, aerobic, oxidase- and catalase-positive, motile bacterium with peritrichous flagella, from the genus Achromobacter. It is generally found in wet environments. Achromobacter xylosoxidans can cause infections such as bacteremia,[3][4] especially for patients who suffer from cystic fibrosis (CF).[5] In 2013, the complete genome of an A. xylosoxidans isolate from a CF patient was sequenced.[6]

Pathogenesis

Originally isolated from patients with otitis media,[7] A. xylosoxidans has since been periodically described as a pathogen of humans.[8] Infection is frequently associated with hospital stay,[8] as well as CF.[5]
