Overview


  • Staphylococcus condimenti is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, coccus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 35.2-36%. Staphylococcus condimenti is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Probst1998; Schleifer2011Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from soy sauce and human faeces. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 1, i.e., low risk of infection and spread. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
