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 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 intermedia; Prevotella nigrescens; Eikenella corrodens; Eubacterium nodatum; Parvimonas micra (formerly Peptostreptococcus micros or Micromonas micros) Streptococcus intermedius; Campylobacter rectus; Capnocytophaga sp. A number of types of fungi, especially Candida spp., also play a smaller but not insignificant role in periodontal ...
The genus Prevotella is known for its role in the human gastrointestinal microbiota. Prevotella species are among the most numerous microbes culturable from the rumen and hind gut of cattle and sheep, where they help the breakdown of protein and carbohydrate foods. They are also present in humans, where they can be opportunistic pathogens.

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 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.

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.
