The ubiquitous gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacteria P. aeruginosa is the causitive bacteria. It causes opportunistic infections. The bacteria is found routinely in soil and water sources, and grows and multiples rapidly in warm water. Improper maintenance of a hot tub can lead to the overgrowth of the bacteria. The bacteria is capable of producing a variety of pigments, the most well known being pyocyanin, which is a blue-green pigment. It is typically grown in the lab on blood agar, MacConkey agar or Pseudomonas isolation agar.
