Abstract

The recognition of serratia as an opportunistic human pathogen can be dated from 1959, when the microorganism entered the family ofEnterobacteriaceae,with features recognizable in the clinical laboratory and related to theKlebsiella/Enterobactergroup. Since then, physicians have been challenged to establish the significance of isolation of serratia from a clinical specimen.
