Ampicillin, erythromycin, penicillin, and methicillin are effective against Staphylococcus albus but not against Pseudomonas fluorescens. Chloramphenicol, erythromycin, and streptomycin are effective against Pseudomonas fluorescens. Chloramphenicol and erythromycin are effective against Micrococcus luteus. Tetracycline is effective against Bacillus sp., including Bacillus subtilis. Sulphafurazole is effective against many gram-negative bacteria, including Pseudomonas fluorescens.
Yes. But because it is not a lactose fermenter, the colonies will be colorless (or sometimes have a green tint).
Yes, Pseudomonas fluorescens is catalase positive. This means that it is able to produce the enzyme catalase, which breaks down hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen, causing bubbling or gas production. This can be observed when a bacterial colony is tested with hydrogen peroxide.

Pseudomonas ssp is a genus of Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that are mostly aerobic.

In a hanging drop preparation, Pseudomonas fluorescens can exhibit motility by moving actively through the liquid medium using flagella. The movement is typically characterized by a swift and smooth motion, allowing the bacteria to explore their environment efficiently within the hanging drop.

Some common species of Pseudomonas typically found in soil include Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas putida, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. These bacteria are known for their ability to thrive in diverse environmental conditions and play important roles in nutrient cycling and plant health.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is able to ferment carbohydrates in phenol red broth, producing acid, which results in a color change from red to yellow. This indicates a positive result for fermentation.
Pseudomonas ssp is a genus of Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacteria that are mostly aerobic.
Pseudomonas bacteria typically give negative reactions in fermentation tests because they are mostly aerobic bacteria and do not ferment carbohydrates like other bacteria. Instead, they carry out oxidative metabolism using organic compounds as their energy source. As a result, they do not produce the byproducts associated with fermentation reactions, leading to negative results in fermentation tests.
Pseudomonas fluorescens is a gram-negative bacterium known for its ability to produce a green fluorescence under certain conditions. It is commonly found in soil and water habitats and is considered an opportunistic pathogen. It produces a wide range of extracellular enzymes and secondary metabolites, which allows it to adapt to various environments and play roles in nutrient cycling, plant growth promotion, and biocontrol of plant pathogens.
