Psychrobacter isolates of human origin, other than Psychrobacter phenylpyruvicus, are predominantly Psychrobacter faecalis and Psychrobacter pulmonis, with emended description of P. faecalis.

ABSTRACT

Human Psychrobacter isolates, other than Psychrobacter phenylpyruvicus, are predominantly designated Psychrobacter immobilis. Phenotypic and genotypic testing of Psychrobacter isolates that have been deposited in different culture collections as P. immobilis indicates that most of these human isolates belong to the species Psychrobacter faecalis and Psychrobacter pulmonis.
