The Lachnospiraceae are a family of obligately anaerobic, variably spore-forming bacteria in the order Eubacteriales that ferment diverse plant polysaccharides to short-chain fatty acids and alcohols (ethanol). These bacteria are among the most abundant taxa in the rumen and the human gut microbiota. Members of this family may protect against colon cancer in humans by producing butyric acid. Lachnospiraceae have been found to contribute to diabetes in genetically susceptible (ob/ob) germ-free mice.
Falsiporphyromonas endometrii is an anaerobic bacterium from the genus of Falsiporphyromonas which has been isolated from the post-partum bovine uterus of a holstein cow in Klein Bennebek in Germany.
Porphyromonas bennonis is a Gram-negative, anaerobic and non-spore-forming bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from human clinical specimens.
Porphyromonas cangingivalis is a bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which occur in the periodontal pockets of dogs. Porphyromonas cangingivalis can cause periodontitis in animals.
Porphyromonas canoris is a Gram-negative, obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming and non-motile bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from subgingival plaque from dogs.
Porphyromonas catoniae is a Gram-negative and anaerobic bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from the human gingival crevice.
Porphyromonas circumdentaria is a Gram-negative and anaerobic bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from a subcutaneous abscess of a cat in Australia.
Porphyromonas gulae is a Gram-negative, anaerobic, non-spore-forming, rod-shaped and non-motile bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from the gingival sulcus of a wolf in Canada.
Porphyromonas pasteri is a Gram-negative, obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming and non-motile bacterium from the genus Porphyromonas which has been isolated from the human saliva. Porphyromonas pasteri is associated with periodontitis, a disease that can lead to tooth loss, and has also been linked to other systemic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and certain cancers.
