Genus of bacteria
Peptoniphilus is a genus of bacteria in the phylum
Bacillota (
Bacteria ).
[2]
Etymology
The name Peptoniphilus derives from:
Neo-Latin noun peptonum , peptone;
Neo-Latin adjective philus from
Greek adjective philos (φίλος) meaning friend, loving;
Neo-Latin
masculine gender noun Peptoniphilus , friend of peptone, referring to the use of peptone as a major energy source.
[3]
Classification
Peptoniphilus are
gram positive
anaerobic
cocci that were formerly classified in the genus
Peptostreptococcus .
[4] They are non-saccharolytic, use peptone as a major energy source and produce butyrate.
[4]
Clinical relevance
This genus is part of the vaginal and gut microbiota.
[5]
[6] They have been reported to as present in diabetic skin and soft tissue infections, bone and joint infections, surgical site infections, chorioamnionitis and bloodstream infections.
[6] They are typically found as part of polymicrobial infections but are difficult to recover with usual clinical cultures. They have been increasingly reported with the more widespread use of
16S
PCR and
MALDI-TOF for identification.
[4] They are noted to be linked with an impairment of wound-healing in patients with diabetic foot ulcers if present in abundance during the initial infection.
[7]
Species
The genus contains 17 species (including basonyms and synonyms), namely
