Overview

  • Enterobacter soli is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 52.8%. Enterobacter soli is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Manter2011)



  • This organism has been recovered from soil. Has been detected in human faeces (Alkhalil2017, CCUG). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
