Overview

  • Bacteroides finegoldii is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 24 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 42.4-43.0%. Bacteroides finegoldii is often a widespread coloniser of gut. (Bakir2006; Song2010Bergeys)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Is a known gut commensal.
