P. rettgeri is in the genus Providencia, along with Providencia stuartii, Providencia alcalifaciens, and Providencia rustigianii. P. rettgeri can be incubated at 37 °C in nutrient agar or nutrient broth. It was first discovered in 1904 after a waterfowl epidemic.[1] Strains of the species have also been isolated from nematodes of the genus Heterorhabditis.[2] IdentificationP. rettgeri can be identified by its motility and its ability to produce acid from mannitol. It does not produce gas from glucose and does not ferment lactose. It also does not produce hydrogen sulfide or acid from xylose. PathogenicityProvidencia rettgeri can cause a number of opportunistic infections in humans and can be found in the human gut. It is a major cause of traveller's diarrhea.[3] Strains of P. rettgeri have also been found to cause urinary tract infections[4] and eye infections.[5]References1. ^{{cite book |last= Hadley |first= Phillip |title= The colon-typhoid intermediates as causative agents of disease in birds: The paratyphoid bacteria |year= 1908 |publisher= RarebooksCLub |isbn= 1236439406 |pages=174–180}} 2. ^{{cite journal|last1=Jackson|first1=T.J.|last2=Wang|first2=Huayan|last3=Nugent|first3=Miriam J.|last4=Griffin|first4=Christine T.|last5=Burnell|first5=Ann M.|last6=Dowds|first6=Barbara C.A.|title=Isolation of insect pathogenic bacteria,Providencia rettgeri, from Heterorhabditis spp.|journal=Journal of Applied Bacteriology|volume=78|issue=3|pages=237–244|doi=10.1111/j.1365-2672.1995.tb05022.x}} 3. ^{{cite journal|last1=Yoh|first1=M.|title=Importance of Providencia species as a major cause of travellers' diarrhoea|journal=Journal of Medical Microbiology|date=1 November 2005|volume=54|issue=11|pages=1077–1082|doi=10.1099/jmm.0.45846-0}} 4. ^{{cite journal|last1=Jones|first1=BD|last2=Mobley|first2=HL|title=Genetic and biochemical diversity of ureases of Proteus, Providencia, and Morganella species isolated from urinary tract infection.|journal=Infection and Immunity|date=Sep 1987|volume=55|issue=9|pages=2198–203|pmid=3623698|pmc=260678}} 5. ^{{cite journal|last1=Koreishi|first1=Aaleya F.|last2=Schechter|first2=Barry A.|last3=Karp|first3=Carol L.|title=Ocular Infections Caused by Providencia rettgeri|journal=Ophthalmology|volume=113|issue=8|pages=1463–1466|doi=10.1016/j.ophtha.2006.03.047|pmid=16797710}} External links{{Wikispecies}}
