TAXONOMY: Bacteria -> Proteobacteria -> Gammaproteobacteria -> Enterobacteriales -> Enterobacteriaceae -> Raoultella -> Raoultella ornithinolytica

OVERVIEW:

Raoultella ornithinolytica is a gram-negative encapsulated aerobic bacillus belonging to family Enterobacteriaceae that is found in aquatic environments, fish, and insects. The most distinctive feature of this bacterium is its ability to convert histidine to histamine in scombroid fish. Consequently, infection with this microorganism causes redness and flushing on the skin. Histamine fish poisoning is caused by histamine-producing bacteria (HPB).R ornithinolytica is a histamine-producing bacterium that subsequently causes fish poisoning. Human infections related to R ornithinolytica are exceedingly rare. Here, we report R ornithinolytica isolated from the wound of diabetic foot in a patient with predialytic chronic kidney disease (CKD).

COGEM
COGEM released a comprehensive database of pathogenicity assessment of around 2575 bacterial species in 2011. The database ranks the pathogenicity of species on a scale of 1 to 4. Raoultella ornithinolytica ranks 2 on this scale: Species that can cause diseases in humans or animals, which are unlikely to spread in the human population and for which an adequate prophylaxis or therapy exists
