Overview

---

Oscillibacter massiliensis, (aka Oscilibacter massiliensis), is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. Oscillibacter massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Traore2017b)

This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Bilen2018e). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
