How does pseudomonas aeruginosa generate energy?

Question

I know it doesn't utilize any carbohydrates in the test media, so how does it produce energy?

Answer 1

Pseudomonads are globally active in aerobic decomposition and biodegradation, and hence, they play a key role in the carbon cycle. Pseudomonas species are renowned for their abilities to degrade compounds which are highly refractory to other organisms, including aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, fatty acids, insecticides and other environmental pollutants. Apparently, the only organic compounds that these pseudomonads can't attack are teflon, styrofoam and one-carbon organic compounds (methane, methanol, formaldehyde, etc.). Pseudomonads are also a regular component of microbial food spoilage in the field, in the market place, and in the home.

Answer 2

sunlight, wind and water
