CHROMagar™ Pseudomonas

Product information

Pseudomonas are ubiquitous bacteria found in the soil, on plants and in freshwater and marine habitats. Many strains can grow at low temperature (psychrophilic strains) and may contaminate food or pharmaceutical products stored in the refrigerator.
Pseudomonas strains can occasionally be isolated from the intestinal flora of humans or animals.
