Overview

  • Sphingomonas bisphenolicum is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, aerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. Sphingomonas bisphenolicum is likely to be transient and not a long-term gut coloniser. (Oshiman2007)
