Overview


  • Robinsoniella peoriensis is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, oval-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 4 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 49%. Robinsoniella peoriensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Cotta2009)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces, clinical sources (blood, deep wound - CCUG), and pig faeces. It is an opportunistic pathogen. A possible gut commensal.
