Answer
Which of the following is not a fluorescent Pseudomonas species? Pseudomonas putida, Pseudomonas mendocina, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, or Pseudomonas fluorescens?   Pseudomonas mendocina is not a fluoresecent Pseudomonas. It is non-fluorescent and usually considered a contaminant.  
🗑
What test can be used to differentiate Pseudomonas fluorescens from Pseudomonas putida?   The gel test can be used to differentiate the two because Pseudomonas fluorescens is gel positive, while Pseudomonas putida is gel negative.  
🗑
