Overview


  • Anaerosphaera massiliensis is a Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, coccus bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 28.1%. Anaerosphaera massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Takakura2019a)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Takakura2019a). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Is a known gut commensal.
