Overview

  • Dellaglioa algida, (aka Lactobacillus algidus), is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 36.7%. Dellaglioa algida is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Kato2000; Hammes2011Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Sanz2007 - healthy children). 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. A possible gut commensal.
