Medical Definition: | A family of gram negative, aerobic, non-sporeforming, rod-shaped bacteria. |
Burkholderia - A genus of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria. Organisms in this genus had originally been classified as members of the PSEUDOMONAS genus but overwhelming biochemical and chemical findings indicated the need to separate them from other Pseudomonas species, and hence, this new genus was created. |
