Overview

  • Salmonella enterica subsp. arizonae, (aka Salmonella arizonae), is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 50-53%. Salmonella enterica subsp. arizonae is unlikely to be a gut coloniser. (Popoff2005Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from mainly cold-blooded animals. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 2, i.e., risk of individual infection, but low risk of spread (notes: zoonotic pathogen). Could be a possible pathogen in humans, but unknown at this stage. Likely to be transient and not a long-term gut commensal. Robust growth can have negative consequences for gut health.
