Overview


  • Staphylococcus pasteuri is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile, coccus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 8 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 35%. Staphylococcus pasteuri is probably a common, although minor, coloniser of the gut. (Chesneau1993; Schleifer2011Bergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from clinical sources (vomit, blood, wound), animals, food and human faeces. The risk classification (www.baua.de) for this organism is 2, i.e., risk of individual infection, but low risk of spread. It is an opportunistic pathogen. Is a known gut commensal.
