Anaerobiospirillum species isolated from humans with diarrhoea

Anaerobiospirillum species isolated from humans with diarrhoea

H Malnick et al. J Clin Pathol. 1983 Oct.

Abstract

Flagellated anaerobic motile spiral bacteria were isolated from the faeces of two patients with diarrhoea. They were recovered by the microaerophilic culture method used to detect campylobacters but demanded anaerobic conditions for subculture. Electron microscopy and other investigations showed them to be closely related to Anaerobiospirillum succiniproducens first described in beagle dogs and subsequently in three humans with bacteraemia.
