Overview

  • Dietzia cinnamea is a Gram-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 72.3%. Dietzia cinnamea is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Yassin2006)



  • This organism has been recovered from clinical sources (blood, bone - CCUG) and human faeces. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread (notes: opportunistic in immunocompromised patients). It is an opportunistic pathogen. A possible gut commensal.
