Overview


  • Bordetella bronchiseptica is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic, motile, coccobacillus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 67-69%. Bordetella bronchiseptica is unlikely to be a gut coloniser. (Sanden2005Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from the respiratory systems of animals and humans. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 2, i.e., risk of individual infection, but low risk of spread (notes: human and animal pathogen). Is a known human pathogen. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.

  • QUIRKS
  • Few isolates from humans; likely a gut non-coloniser
