AB  - The  pseudomonads  are  a  heterogeneous  group  of  gram-negative  bacteria  that  have  in  common  an  inability  to  ferment  lactose.  Formerly  classified  in  the  genus  Pseudomonas,  the  members  of  this  group  have  been  assigned  to  three  medically  important  genera—Pseudomonas,  Burkholderia,  and  Stenotrophomonas—whose  biologic  behaviors  encompass  both  similarities  and  marked  differences  and  whose  genetic  repertoires  differ  in  many  respects.  The  pathogenicity  of  most  pseudomonads  is  based  on  opportunism;  the  exceptions  are  the  organisms  that  cause  melioidosis  (Burkholderia  pseudomallei)  and  glanders  (Burkholderia  mallei),  which  can  be  considered  as  primary  pathogens.
