• The bacteria were identified as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a free-living bacteria found widely in soil and water and well known as a survivalist that can produce biofilms. • Sara was treated with an inhaled antibiotic in combination with an IV antibiotic for 28 days. During that time, her respiratory function improved considerably, and she was able to return home after a week in the hospital. Final Question to Answer: Please research P. aeruginosa metabolism and answer this question: 9. In cystic fibrosis, the lung sputum is anaerobic. Since P. aeruginosa does not carry out fermentation, what type of catabolism would permit these bacteria to survive in an anaerobic environment?
