Overview


  • Bordetella hinzii is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 65-67%. Bordetella hinzii is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Vandamme1995; Sanden2005Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces, chicken sources, and clinical sources. 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
