Acinetobacter calcoaceticus is a bacterial species of the genus Acinetobacter. It is a nonmotile, gram negative coccobacillus. It grows under aerobic conditions, is catalase positive and oxidase negative. A. calcoaceticus is a part of the A. calcoaceticus-A. baumannii complex together with Acinetobacter baumannii, Acinetobacter nosocomialis, Acinetobacter pitti and Acinetobacter seifertii.
Acinetobacter beijerinckii is a gram-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus of Acinetobacter which was isolated from human and animal specimens and from different environmental sources.
Acinetobacter boissieri is a gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter which was isolated from plants' floral nectar pollinated by wild Mediterranean insects. Acinetobacter boissieri is named after botanist Pierre Edmond Boissier.
Acinetobacter guillouiae is a gram-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from gasworks effluent.
Acinetobacter gyllenbergii is a gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from human clinical specimens. It is named in honour of Finnish bacteriologist and taxonomist Helge G. Gyllenberg.
Acinetobacter indicus is a gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from a hexachlorocyclohexane dump site in Ummari near Lucknow in India.
Acinetobacter nectaris is a gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from floral nectar pollinated by Mediterranean insects in the Doñana National Park in the Huelva Province in Spain. Bacterial communities, including microbes identified as A. nectaris are closely associated with plant communities; other strains of bacteria have been found in environments that mother bees visit. This bacterium was first characterized in 2013.
Acinetobacter nosocomialis is a gram-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from a patient at MetroHealth in Cleveland, Ohio. Acinetobacter nosocomialis belongs to the Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii complex.
Acinetobacter parvus is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from human clinical specimens.
Acinetobacter pittii is a Gram-negative, oxidase-negative, catalase-positive, strictly aerobic, nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter. A. pittii belongs to the Acinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumannii complex and is named after the British microbiologist Tyrone Pitt. Bacteria of the genus Acinetobacter are ubiquitously distributed in nature. They are Gram-negative, strictly aerobic, nonmotile, diplococcoid rods that are oxidase negative and catalase positive. They are found in various types of soils and waters and are occasionally found in foodstocks. They are normal inhabitants of human skin and are capable of transitory colonization of the upper respiratory tract. They can cause infection in debilitated patients. DNA-DNA hybridization studies have been used to identify DNA groups within the genus Acinetobacter.
Acinetobacter rudis is a Gram-negative, strictly aerobic bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from raw milk and wastewater.
Acinetobacter soli is a Gram-negative, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, strictly aerobic rod-shaped, nonmotile bacterium from the genus Acinetobacter isolated from forest soil at Mt. Baekwoon in the Republic of Korea. . Acinetobacter soli can cause bloodstream infection in neonates.
