Fusobacteria
Fusobacteriota are obligately anaerobic non-sporeforming Gram-negative bacilli. Since the first reports in the late nineteenth century, various names have been applied to these organisms, sometimes with the same name being applied to different species. More recently, not only have there been changes to the nomenclature, but also attempts to differentiate between species which are believed to be either pathogenic or commensal or both. Because of their asaccharolytic nature, and a general paucity of positive results in routine biochemical tests, laboratory identification of the Fusobacteriota has been difficult. However, the application of novel molecular biological techniques to taxonomy has established a number of new species, together with the subspeciation of ''Fusobacterium necrophorum'' and ''F. nucleatum'', and provided new methods for identification. The involvement of Fusobacteriota in a wide spectrum of human infections causing tissue necrosis and septicaemia has long bee ...

Fusobacterium Novum
''Fusobacterium'' is a genus of Anaerobic organism, anaerobic, Gram-negative, non-sporeforming bacteria belonging to Gracilicutes. Individual Cell (biology), cells are slender, rod-shaped Bacillus (shape), bacilli with pointed ends. Strains of ''Fusobacterium'' cause several human diseases, including periodontal diseases, Lemierre's syndrome, and topical skin ulcers. Although older sources state that ''Fusobacterium'' is part of the normal flora of the human oropharynx, the current consensus is that ''Fusobacterium'' should always be treated as a pathogen. ''F. prausnitzii'', a gut commensal associated with healthy patients, was completely reclassified as ''Faecalibacterium'' (''Clostridiales'':''Ruminococcaceae'') in 2002. Clinical relevance ''Fusobacterium'' is often associated with ulcerative colitis. Research of colon cancer has also shown an overrepresentation of ''Fusobacterium'', both in feces of patients and tumor issue itself. Whether ''Fusobacterium'' causes these disea ...

List Of Bacteria Genera
This article lists the genera of the bacteria. The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). However many taxonomic names are taken from the GTDB release 07-RS207 (8th April 2022).

Fusiform
Fusiform means having a spindle-like shape that is wide in the middle and tapers at both ends. It is similar to the lemon-shape, but often implies a focal broadening of a structure that continues from one or both ends, such as an aneurysm on a blood vessel. Examples * Fusiform, a body shape common to many aquatic animals, characterized by being tapered at both the head and the tail * Fusiform, a classification of aneurysm * Fusiform bacteria (spindled rods, that is, fusiform bacilli), such as the Fusobacteriota * Fusiform cell (biology) * Fusiform face area, a part of the human visual system which seems to specialize in facial recognition * Fusiform gyrus, part of the temporal lobe of the brain * Fusiform muscle, where the fibres run parallel along the length of the muscle * Fusiform neuron, a spindle-shaped neuron A neuron, neurone, or nerve cell is an electrically excitable cell that communicates with other cells via specialized connections called synapses. The neuron i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Streptobacillus
''Streptobacillus'' is a genus of fastidious microaerophilic gram-negative bacteria, which grow in culture as rods in chains. Species associated with infection - ''S. moniliformis'' Reported susceptibilities and therapies - penicillin, erythromycin Diseases Associated infections: the Haverhill fever form of rat bite fever. (Notes ''Spirillum minus'' is also an agent of rat bite fever, in the form known as sodoku.) Haverhill fever, which is characterized by fever, rash, chills, headache, vomiting, muscle pain, arthritis, and bacteremia, and by weight loss and diarrhea in children. Commentary Rat bite fever is caused by either '' Streptobacillus moniliformis'' or '' Spirillum minor''. The incidence of rat-bite fever is highest in urban areas with poor sanitation where the rat population is high, however in recent times cases have also been attributed to occupational contact with rodents such as pet shop employees or laboratory workers or through pet ownership.
