Ralstonia mannitolilytica is a Gram-negative soil bacterium. Pseudomonas thomasii and Ralstonia pickettii biovar 3/thomasii are synonyms.[1][2]
Ralstonia mannitolilytica has been implicated as an opportunistic pathogen in hospital-acquired infections,[3] including a 1976 United Kingdom outbreak due to a contaminated distilled water supply,[4] a 1989 outbreak in Taiwan caused by contaminated 0.9% sodium chloride solution,[5] and a 2005 outbreak in children in the United States that was linked to contaminated Vapotherm respiratory gas humidification devices.[6]
