Aug 23, 2020 · Notably, certain Eubacterium species such as E. cylindroides may exhibit both Gram-positive and Gram-negative characteristics, thereby creating ambiguity in a fundamental phenotypic characteristic that is frequently implemented in taxonomic assignment; this contributes further to the considerable confusion in classification of Eubacterium ...

Eubacterium is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria in the family Eubacteriaceae. These bacteria are characterised by a rigid cell wall. They may either be motile or nonmotile. If motile, they have a flagellum. A typical flagellum consists of a basal body, filament, and hook.
E. hallii is a Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, catalase-negative bacterium that belongs to phylum Firmicutes, class Clostridia, and family Eubacteriaceae (Louis, Young, Holtrop, & Flint, 2010 ). E. hallii is a butyrate-producing gut bacterium falls into Clostridium cluster XIVa ( Louis et al., 2010 ).

Oct 19, 2014 · For many decades the genus Eubacterium has been a dumping ground for Gram-stain-positive, nonspore-forming anaerobic uniform or pleomorphic rods, many of which belong to different lineages according to their phylogenetic position based upon 16S rRNA sequence analysis (Yarza et al. 2010).

The genus definition for Eubacterium is rather unsatisfactory as it is defined by default; it includes those Gram-positive, nonsporeforming, obligately anaerobic rods that do not produce: 1) propionic acid as major acid (in contrast to Propionibacterium); 2) lactic acid alone (in contrast to Lactobacillus); 3) more acetic acid than lactic acid ...
