Enterococcus faecalis – formerly classified as part of the group D Streptococcus system – is a Gram-positive, commensal bacterium inhabiting the gastrointestinal tracts of humans. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Like other species in the genus Enterococcus , E. faecalis is found in healthy humans and can be used as a probiotic.
Enterococcus malodoratus is a species of the genus Enterococcus and a gram positive bacteria capable of opportunistic pathogenic response. These microbes have a thick polypeptide layer. [ 1 ] Enterococcus can be found in the gastrointestinal tracts of humans and other mammals.

[1] Various body parts have diverse microorganisms. Some microbes are specific to certain body parts and others are associated with many microbiomes.
Specimens obtained from wounds and subcutaneous tissue infections and abscesses in the rectal area (perirectal abscess, decubitus ulcer) or that are of gut flora origin(i.e. diabetic foot infection) often to yield colonic flora organisms. [40] These are generally B. fragilis group, Clostridium spp., Enterobacteriaceae and Enterococcus spp. On ...
There are many species that show non-pathogenic characteristics; however, there are some, like S. pneumoniae, that exhibit pathogenic characteristics in the human body. [17] [11] The genus Enterococcus belongs to the family Enterococcaceae. This genus is divided into 58 species and two subspecies. [18] These gram-positive, coccoid bacteria were ...
The umbilicus, or navel, is an area of the body that is rarely exposed to UV light, soaps, or bodily secretions [8] (the navel does not produce any secretions or oils) [9] and because it is an almost undisturbed community of bacteria [10] it is an excellent part of the skin microbiome to study. [11]
