Lamprobacter is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped and motile genus of bacteria from the family of Chromatiaceae with one known species ( Lamprobacter modestohalophilus ). [1] [2] [3] [4] The habitat of Lamprobacter bacteria is hydrogen sulfide-containing mud and saline water. [5]

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.
