| Description |
Acinetobacter organisms are gram-negative, aerobic, encapsulated, and nonmotile. They are coccoid during stationary phases of growth, but they appear rod-shaped when they are growing rapidly. These organisms differ from other members of the family Neisseriaceae by the simplicity of their requirements for growth. Whereas Neisseria, Moraxella, and Kingella are parasitic in warm-blooded animals, Acinetobacter organisms can be found on both animate and inanimate objects. |
