Enterobacter aerogenes



Hi, my name is E. aerogenes.
I'm a Gram negative bacteria from the Enterobacteriaceae family.
I'm from the Klebsiellae tribe.
Hospitals are my favourite place, where I live with my cousins E. cloacae and E. agglomerans.
We cause nosocomial (hospital) infections in debilitated patients.

We are also resistant to many antibiotics.

I've never seen so many germs in one place other than a petri dish. Do you do your own illustrations?
