My culture came up showing a new bug. Here are the basics on it and an excert reading on it.
CDC group IVc-2: Cupriavidus pauculus Ralstonia paucula Wautersia paucula
A gram-negative, non- fermenting bacillus, rarely associated with human infections.
"They noticed several characteristics their organism shared with members of the genus Alcaligenes, now all classified in the genus *Achromobacter, first reclassified in the genus Ralstonia and recently transferred again, to the novel genus Wautersia.
*noteworthy: my sputum usually comes up with achromabacter in it but this year it has not and there is a part of me wondering, since they are closely related, if this mis-identified.
Cupriavidus pauculus is a gram-negative, non- fermenting bacillus, rarely associated with human infections.
