Psychrobacter is a genus of Gram-negative, osmotolerant, oxidase-positive, psychrophilic or psychrotolerant, oxidase-positive, aerobic bacteria which belong to family of Moraxellaceae and the class of Gammaproteobacteria.[1][2][3][4] The shape is typically cocci or coccobacilli.[5] Some of those bacteria were isolated from humans and can cause humans infections like endocarditis and peritonitis.[6][7] This genus of bacteria is capable to grow at temperatures between −10°C and 42°C.[8] Rudi Rossau found through DNA-rRNA hybridization analysis out, that Psychrobacter belongs to the family of Moraxellaceae.[9] The first species (Psychrobacter immobilis) was described by Ellioz Juni and Gloria A. Heym.[10] Psychrobacter occur in wide, most could saline, range habitats.[8][11] But they also occur in warm and slightly saline habitats.[4][12]
