		Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative rod measuring 0.5 to 0.8 µm by 1.5 to 3.0 µm.
		Pseudomonas aeruginosa is notorious for its resistance to antibiotics and is, therefore, a particularly dangerous and dreaded pathogen.
		Pseudomonas aeruginosa causes chronic contiguous osteomyelitis, usually resulting from direct inoculation of bone, and is the most common pathogen implicated in osteochondritis after puncture wounds of the foot.

		Pseudomonas are one of the major causes of nosocomial (hospital acquired) infections.
		Pseudomonas are hardy microorganisms, and can grow on almost any available surface where enough moisture and nutrients are present.
		Moreover, Pseudomonas aeruginosa specifically change their genetic behavior when on a surface, such that they produce much more of the glycocalyx material than they produce when floating in solution.

	Pseudomonas aeruginosa
		Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a bacterium responsible for severe nosocomial infections, life-threatening infections in immunocompromised persons, and chronic infections in cystic fibrosis patients.
		Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an increasingly prevalent opportunistic human pathogen, is the most common gram-negative bacterium found in nosocomial infections.
		After an initial colonization phase, mostly dependent on cell-associated virulence factors, the infectious process evolves either to a chronic infection characterized by low production of extracellular virulence factors or to an acute infection characterized by high production of cell-to-cell signaling dependent virulence factors.
