"Pseudomonas alcaligenes" is a Gram-negative aerobic bacterium used as a soil inoculant for bioremediation purposes, as it can degrade polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons [O'Mahony MM, Dobson AD, Barnes JD, Singleton I. (2006) The use of ozone in the remediation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contaminated soil. Chemosphere 63(2):307-14. PMID 16153687] . It can be a human pathogen but occurrences are very rare [Valenstein P, Bardy GH, Cox CC, Zwadyk P. (1983) "Pseudomonas alcaligenes" endocarditis. American Journal of Clinical Pathology 79(2):245-7. PMID 6823910 ] . Based on 16S rRNA analysis, "P. alcaligenes" has been placed in the "P. aeruginosa" group [cite journal |author=Anzai, "et al." |title=Phylogenetic affiliation of the pseudomonads based on 16S rRNA sequence |journal=Int J Syst Evol Microbiol |volume=50 (Pt 4) |pages=1563–89 |year=2000, Jul |pmid=10939664] .
