Serratia marcescens is a member of the genus Serratia, which is a part of the family Enterobacteriaceae.Currently 14 species of Serratia are recognized within the genus, eight of which are associated with human infection (67).f all Serratia species, S. marcescens is the most common clinical isolate and the most important human pathogen.
