Moraxella porci is a Gram-negative, aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-endospore-forming bacterium in the genus Moraxella , which was isolated from the brain of a pig suffering from meningitis. [3] [4]
A diplococcus is a round bacterium that typically occurs in the form of two joined cells.
A Pigasus is a portmanteau word combining pig with Pegasus, the winged horse, and used to refer to a pig with wings. The name has been used by two different authors.
Moraxella is a genus of gram-negative bacteria in the family Moraxellaceae. It is named after the Swiss ophthalmologist Victor Morax. The organisms are short rods, coccobacilli, or as in the case of Moraxella catarrhalis, diplococci in morphology, with asaccharolytic, oxidase-positive, and catalase-positive properties. M. catarrhalis is the clinically most important species under this genus.
Moraxella atlantae is a Gram-negative, oxidase-positive and catalase-positive, rod-shaped, nonmotile bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from aerobic blood cultures from a female cancer patient. M. atlantae is a rare opportunistic pathogen which can usually be treated by common antibiotics.
Moraxella boevrei is a Gram-negative, oxidase- and catalase-positive, aerobic nonmotile bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the nasal flora of healthy goats in Lyon in France.
Moraxella canis is a Gram-negative, oxidase-positive bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from a wound from dog bite in Sweden and from an ulcerated supraclavicular lymph node of a patient.
Moraxella caprae is a Gram-negative, aerobic, nonmotile bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the nasal flora of goats in Lyon in France.
Moraxella caviae is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the pharyngeal region and mouth of guinea pig.
Moraxella cuniculi is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the oral mucosa of a rabbit in Germany. The previous name was Neisseria cuniculi.
Moraxella equi is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the eye of a horse.
Moraxella lincolnii is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the human respiratory tract.
Moraxella nonliquefaciens is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the upper respiratory tract of humans. M. nonliquefaciens occasionally causes disease.
Moraxella oblonga is a catalase- and oxidase-positive, Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the oral cavity of a sheep. Alysiella sp. was transferred to M. oblonga.
Moraxella saccharolytica is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the spinal cord of a child with meningitis.
Moraxella bovoculi is a Gram-negative bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the eyes of calves in Browns Valley, California. M. bovoculi can cause infectious bovine keratoconjunctivitis.
Moraxella pluranimalium is a Gram-negative, aerobic, catalase- and oxidase-positive, non-spore-forming bacterium in the genus Moraxella, which was isolated from the nasal turbinate of a pig.
Olsenella scatoligenes is a Gram-positive, saccharolytic, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic and non-motile bacterium from the genus of Olsenella which has been isolated from faeces of a pig from the Aarhus University in Denmark.Olsenella scatoligenes produces 3-methylindole and 4-methylphenol.
Lactobacillus porci is a species of bacteria that falls within the Lactobacillus genus. Species within this genus are typically facultative anaerobes, gram-positive rods, non-spore forming, and are able to produce lactic acid from fermentation of glucose. The species of bacteria is located primarily in guts of mammals and insects.
Yersinia hibernica is a species of Yersinia that was originally isolated in a pig-production environment. The type strain is CFS1934. This species has previously been misidentified as Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia kristensenii but it may be distinguished biochemically by lack of sucrose utilization. In addition to pig related environments, Y. hibernica has also been isolated from the feces of Rattus norvegicus and Hydrochoerus hydrochaeris.
Jeotgalibaca arthritidis is a Gram-positive bacterium from the genus Jeotgalibaca which has been isolated from the liquid of a joint from pigs.
