Citrobacter contamination of water can be eradicated by using chlorination, boiling, or filtration methods. These methods help to kill or remove the bacteria, making the water safe for consumption. It is important to also identify and address the source of the contamination to prevent future occurrences.
Citrobacter freundii complex refers to 8 related species of bacteria from the Genus Citrobacter, including Citrobacter braaki, Citrobacter freundii, Citrobacter gillenii, Citrobacter murliniae, Citrobacter rodenticum, Citrobacter sedlakii and Citrobacter werkmenii. These species all have similar phenotypic and genotypic characteristics, and in most cases cannot be reliably identified using the standard phenotypic methods employed in the laboratory. Therefore the identification for any one of the above species is most accurately reported as "Citrobacter freundii complex" Please see the article entitled "What's in a Name? The Genus Citrobacter" in the related web link. The Genus Citrobacter are part of the family Enterobacteriaceae, which are gram negative enteric (found in the intestinal tract) organisms.
Citrobacter is commonly found in soil, water, and human intestines. It can also be present in feces of animals and humans. It is usually acquired through contaminated water or food sources.
Yes, Citrobacter species isolated from urine samples usually require further identification and susceptibility testing to determine appropriate treatment. Isolation is important to assess the extent of infection and identify the specific Citrobacter species present. Treatment decisions should be based on the susceptibility profile of the identified isolate.
Symptoms of Citrobacter freundii infection in humans can include fever, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and urinary tract infections. In severe cases, it can lead to sepsis or pneumonia. It is important to seek medical attention if experiencing these symptoms.

Yes, Citrobacter freundii is a facultative anaerobe, meaning it can grow in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions. It can metabolize oxygen if available but can also switch to anaerobic metabolism in the absence of oxygen.
Citrobacter freundii can be contagious if proper hygiene practices are not followed. It is primarily transmitted through direct contact with contaminated surfaces, hands, or by consuming contaminated food or water. Good hand hygiene and sanitation practices can help prevent the spread of Citrobacter freundii.

Yes, Citrobacter freundii can metabolize lactose or citrate as a carbon source.
Indole test,Proteus vulgaris is be indole positive and Citrobacter freundii will be indole negative
contamination of water resources by excessive inputs of nutrients is called resource contamination
No, the death of a fish does not typically result in water contamination.
Bacteries from the genus Citrobacter.
The water contamination with plutonium is of course possible but fortunately very, very rare and not significative.
