Acinetobacter baumannii is a gram-negative, oxidase-negative bacillus that is often resistant to Penicillin. It is usually found in moist environments and can indicate a water or sewage leak, but it is also widely distributed in soil. It can cause a range of diseases from pneumonia and urinary tract infections to meningitis, but it is normally considered an opportunistic pathogen.
