Shewanella putrefaciens

Introduction

Shewanella putrefaciens is a bacteria that is found mainly in marine environments. It is a gram negative bacteria, meaning it does dye during gram staining, which usually indicates a stronger antibiotic resistance. It is also a facultative anaerobe, meaning it can undergo aerobic respiration when oxygen is present, and can reduce iron and magnesium metabolically. Sheweanella putrefaciens grows quickly on both solid and liquid media and is recognizable for its pink color.
