Pseudomonas nitroreducens is an aerobic, Gram-negative soil bacterium first isolated from oil brine in Japan.[1] It is able to synthesise polyhydroxybutyrate homopolymer (a polyester) from medium chain length fatty acids.[2] Based on 16S rRNA analysis, P. nitroreducens has been placed in the P. aeruginosa group.[3]
