Overview

  • Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serovar Choleraesuis 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. enterica serovar Choleraesuis is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Popoff2005Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces. 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). Is a known human pathogen. A possible gut commensal.
