Brucella anthropi is a bacterium. [3] Before 2020 it was listed as Ochrobactrum anthropi. [4] This change in nomenclature has been disputed. [5] 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. [6] [7] [8] One strain is able to break down Piracetam. [9] [10]
