Overview


  • Capnocytophaga stomatis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, fusiform bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. Capnocytophaga stomatis is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Zangenah2016)



  • Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal.
