Burkholderia cepacia, formerly classified as Pseudomonas cepacia, is an obligately aerobic, motile, gram-negative rod. It is common in both soil and groundwater worldwide, and is capable of utilizing PCBs as a food source in the environment. B. cepacia is most often associated with chronic lung infections of cystic fibrosis patients and with pneumonia in the immunocompromised.
