Achromobacter xylosoxidans is a Gram-negative, aerobic, oxidase- and catalase-positive, motile bacterium with peritrichous flagella, from the genus Achromobacter found in water environments and was isolated from patients (pulmonary).[3][4] Achromobacter xylosoxidans can cause infections like bacteremia,[5][6] especially for patients who suffer from cystic fibrosis.[7] In 2013, the complete genome of an A. xylosoxidans isolate from CF patient was sequenced.[8]
