Pedobacter
Pedobacter is a genus of Gram-negative soil-associated bacteria. Species including Pedobacter heparinus, formerly known as Flavobacterium heparinum, produce heparinase and are capable of using heparin as their sole carbon and nitrogen source.[1]

In molecular biology, Pedobacter has also been identified as a contaminant of DNA extraction kit reagents and ultra-pure water systems, which may lead to its erroneous appearance in microbiota or metagenomic datasets.[2]

gollark: It's better than "hahahahahahaha you have to rewrite your application to use newer trendier things every few years or it'll break".
gollark: Just configure your linter or TS or whatever to disallow some stuff.
