Description |
Finegoldia magna is a species of obligately anaerobic, Gram positive bacterium. It is a normal flora of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract, and can be isolated from skin and the oral cavity and is often regarded as a contaminant in cultures. It is an opportunist organism often found in abdominal infections (where it does not seem to cause serious problems), non-puerperal breast abscesses and diabetic foot infections.
