Encyclopedia
Atopobium is a genus of Actinobacteria
, in the family Coriobacteriaceae
.
Atopobium species are anaerobic bacteria, Gram-positive rod-shaped or elliptical found as single elements or in pairs or short chains.
The atopobium vaginae was discovered in 1999 by Rodriguez as a common commensal of the woman's vagina.
This is an optional anaerobic bacteria, Gram-positive rod-shaped or elliptical coconut, which form small colonies on blood agar at 37 °C is also positive for acid phosphatase. It 's a bacteria that are unable to obtain a classical microbiology ; it often causes (50% of cases) bacterial vaginosis
