Criibacterium bergeronii gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Peptostreptococcaceae, isolated from human clinical samples.

ABSTRACT: A rod-shaped, motile anaerobic bacterium, designated CCRI-22567^T, was isolated from a vaginal sample of a woman diagnosed with bacterial vaginosis and subjected to a polyphasic taxonomic study. The novel strain was capable of growth at 30-42 °C (optimum, 42 °C), at pH 5.5-8.5 (optimum, pH 7.0-7.5) and in the presence of 0-1.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimally at 0.5 % NaCl). The phylogenetic trees based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain CCRI-22567^T forms a distinct evolutionary lineage independent of other taxa in the family Peptostreptococcaceae. Strain CCRI-22567^T exhibited 90.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity to Peptoanaerobacter stomatis ACC19a^T and 89.7 % to Eubacterium yurii subsp. schtitka ATCC 43716. The
