The microbes that produce this metabolite
      Fusobacterium nucleatum
         Detailed Information MIC Info click to show the detail information of this Microbiota [4]
         Description
Fusobacteria nucleatum is a species of gram-negative, anaerobic bacteria from the genus Fusobacteria.
      Eubacterium
         Detailed Information MIC Info click to show the detail information of this Microbiota [5], [6]
         Description
Eubacteria is a genus of gram-positive bacteria in the family Eubacteriaceae. These bacteria are characterised by a rigid cell wall. They may either be motile or nonmotile. If motile, they have a flagellum. A typical flagellum consists of a basal body, filament, and hook. The long filament is the organ which helps eubacteria move.
      Roseburia

         Description
Anaerostipes hadrus is a gram-positive bacteria from the genus of Anaerostipes which has been isolated from human faeces.
      Faecalibacterium
         Detailed Information MIC Info click to show the detail information of this Microbiota [2], [3]
         Description
Faecalibacteria is a genus of bacteria. Its sole known species, Faecalibacteria prausnitzii is gram-positive, mesophilic, rod-shaped, anaerobic and is one of the most abundant and important commensal bacteria of the human gut microbiota. These bacteria produce butyrate and other short-chain fatty acids through the fermentation of dietary fiber.
      Coprococcus catus

         Description
Porphyromonas gingivalis belongs to the phylum Bacteroidetes and is a nonmotile, gram-negative, rod-shaped, anaerobic, pathogenic bacteria. It forms black colonies on blood agar.
      Lactobacillus
         Detailed Information MIC Info click to show the detail information of this Microbiota [7], [6]
         Description
Lactobacillus is a genus of gram-positive, facultative anaerobic or microaerophilic, rod-shaped, non-spore-forming bacteria. They are a major part of the lactic acid bacteria group. In humans, they constitute a significant component of the microbiota at a number of body sites, such as the digestive system, urinary system, and genital system.
