Overview

  • Negativicoccus massiliensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, microaerophilic, non-motile, coccus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. Negativicoccus massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Togo2016b)



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