Stenotrophomonas chelatiphaga is a Gram-negative rod distinguished by its ability to degrade metal chelating compounds such as EDTA. It has been isolated from activated sludge and contaminated soil environments. This metabolically specialized bacterium participates in the breakdown of synthetic chelants in wastewater treatment systems.

Stenotrophomonas lactitubi is a Gram-negative rod isolated from dairy processing environments, as its species name suggests. It inhabits food processing facilities and dairy-associated substrates. This aerobic chemoheterotroph degrades organic compounds and may colonize food production surfaces and piping.
