Trichococcus is a mesophilic and psychrotolerant genus of bacteria from the family of Carnobacteriaceae. [3] [1] [4] [5] Trichococcus bacteria have the ability to utilize sugars, sugar alcohols and polysaccharides. [6] Some species of Trichococcus species where transferred from the genera Lactosphaera and Ruminococcus. [2]

The Pasteurellaceae comprise a large family of Gram-negative bacteria. Most members live as commensals on mucosal surfaces of birds and mammals, especially in the upper respiratory tract. Pasteurellaceae are typically rod-shaped, and are a notable group of facultative anaerobes. Their biochemical characteristics can be distinguished from the related Enterobacteriaceae by the presence of oxidase, and from most other similar bacteria by the absence of flagella.
