Brucella anthropi is a bacterium. [3] Before 2020 it was listed as Ochrobactrum anthropi. [4] The type strain is strain CIP 82.115 (= CIP 14970 = NCTC 12168 = LMG 3331). B. anthropi strains are rod-shaped, aerobic, gram-negative, non-pigmented and motile by means of peritrichous flagella. [5] [6] [7] One strain is able to break down Piracetam. [8] [9]

<i>Streptococcus anginosus</i> Species of bacterium

Streptococcus anginosus is a species of Streptococcus. This species, Streptococcus intermedius, and Streptococcus constellatus constitute the anginosus group, which is sometimes also referred to as the milleri group after the previously assumed but later refuted idea of a single species Streptococcus milleri. Phylogenetic relatedness of S. anginosus, S. constellatus, and S. intermedius has been confirmed by rRNA sequence analysis.
