Ecology and Pathogenesis

The habitat for the Nocardioides carbamazepini microorganism is varied, as it and it’s related species have been shown to inhabit both natural and unnatural environments - there is research that has depicted both the Nocardioidaceae family (Nocardioides) and the variation of carbamazepini (noted as carbamazepine in some text) in agricultural regions and groundwater. There is minimal information regarding its environmental effects, however, there is running research regarding the degradation of this organism in groundwater due to the overuse of its pharmaceutical counterpart. The most common place that this microorganism can be found in is medical facilities and research, in which it is used to both alter and create the structure of medication. Nocardiodes carbamazepini is not capable of causing disease but has been shown to have a beneficial factor in a variety of medications, as stated above. Carbamazepine is the variation that is used to treat neurological issues such as epilepsy, nerve damage, and bipolar disorder, whereas Nocardiodes carbamazepini itself is used to biodegrade ibuprofen.
