Overview

  • Nosocomiicoccus massiliensis is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, aerobic, motile, coccus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 36.4%. Nosocomiicoccus massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Mishra2013c)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Mishra2013c) and clinical sources (synovial fluid - CCUG). Is a rare opportunistic pathogen. A possible gut commensal.
