Overview

  • Vibrio cincinnatiensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. The DNA G+C content is 45%. Vibrio cincinnatiensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Brayton1986; Farmer2005gBergey)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (CCUG) and clinical sources (enteritis, blood, cerebrospinal fluid - CCUG). 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. A possible gut commensal.
