Prevotella species may be commensal in the vagina, though increased abundance of Prevotella in vaginal mucosa is associated with bacterial vaginosis.A study of 542 Korean women, including identical and fraternal twins, highlighted that the vaginal microbiota's composition is influenced by menopausal status and bacterial vaginosis, with Lactobacillus and Prevotella being the most inheritable ...
Prevotella bivia is a species of bacteria in the genus Prevotella.It is gram-negative.It is one cause of pelvic inflammatory disease. [1]Other Prevotella spp. are members of the oral and vaginal microbiota, and are recovered from anaerobic infections of the respiratory tract.
Prevotella intermedia (formerly Bacteroides intermedius) is a gram-negative, obligate anaerobic pathogenic bacterium involved in periodontal infections, including gingivitis and periodontitis, and often found in acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis. It is commonly isolated from dental abscesses, where obligate anaerobes predominate.
Prevotella nigrescens is a species of bacterium. [1] Prevotella nigrescens has a gram negative gram stain. When P. nigrescens microflora colonize they trigger an over-aggressive response from the immune system and increase the incidence of many diseases and infections. One specific type of bacteria that is part of the normal oral flora but ...
Prevotella species are part of the human oral and vaginal flora. They play a role in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, [ 2 ] gingivitis, extraoral and some odontogenic infections , [ 3 ] and strains are usually carried in families, in so-called intrafamilial carriage. [ 4 ]
Pigmented Prevotella and Porphyromonas spp. are especially common in bite and skull bone infections, whereas members of the B. fragilis group are often found in vascular disease or neuropathy. Fusobacterium spp., which belongs to the oral microflora, are most often isolated from bites and from cranial and facial bone infections.
Prevotella melaninogenica is a species of bacterium in the normal microbiota of the upper respiratory tract. It is an important human pathogen in various anaerobic infections, often mixed with other aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. [2] P. melaninogenica is an anaerobic, Gram-negative rod, named for its black colonies, and black pigment.
Prevotella brevis is a species of bacterium. [1]Prevotella species are part of the human oral and vaginal microbiota.They play a role in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, [2] gingivitis, extraoral and some odontogenic infections, [3] and strains are usually carried in families, in so-called intrafamilial carriage.
