Raoultella Ornithinolytica (RO) is an encapsulated, Gram- negative, nonmotile aerobic rob which was reclassified from Klepsiella genus belonging in the family of Enterobacteriaceae. It is a rare human infection and few cases have been reported in post thoracotomy patients. Here we present a case of a left lower lobectomy patient that was complicated by pleural effusion and high fever with positive sputum cultures of Raoultella Ornithinolytica and positive pleural fluid cultures of Staphylococcus hominis. It is related with aquatic life poisoning. There are few cases reported and even fewer postoperatively. The infection is rare in human therefore the bacteria is still underreported.

Background: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales isolates are associated with significant mortality and have emerged as a major problem in healthcare settings worldwide.
Objective: Our aim was to investigate the epidemiological and genotypic characteristics of carbapenemase-positive Enterobacterales isolates from patients hospitalised in three hospitals in the city of Batna, Algeria.
Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, a total of 5,316 clinical isolates were obtained.

The utilization of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) holds great promise for the restoration of damaged terrestrial plant ecosystems. However, there is a significant knowledge gap regarding the application of PGPR in rehabilitating aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we conducted a mesocosm experiment to investigate the effects of Raoultella ornithinolytica F65, Pantoea cypripedii G84, Klebsiella variicola G85, Novosphingobium profundi G86, and Klebsiella pneumoniae I109 on eelgrass (Zostera marina L.
