Burkholderia thailandensis is a non-fermenting motile Gram-negative bacillus that occurs naturally in soil. It is closely related to Burkholderia pseudomallei, but unlike B. pseudomallei, it does not cause disease in humans or animals.[2][3] It is usually distinguished from B. pseudomallei by its ability to assimilate arabinose. The phenotypic differences have been summarised by Woods (1999).[4]
