Overview

  • Intestinimonas timonensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. Intestinimonas timonensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Durand2017b)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Durand2017b). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
