The genus name for Streptobacillus is Streptobacillus. Streptobacillus is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria that are typically rod-shaped and form chains.
Rat-Bite fever is a rare disease caused by a bacterium called Streptobacillus moniliformis. This bacterium is found worldwide. However, in Asia, the bacterium Spirillum minus also causes Rat-Bite fever. 50-100 % of wild rats carry this disease.
You can find Streptobacillus bacteria in the respiratory tracts and oral cavities of animals such as pigs, sheep, and horses. They are also sometimes found in contaminated food and water sources.
Streptobacillus is not a typically recognized probiotic organism. It is a genus of bacteria that includes species known to cause infections in animals and humans, rather than promote health benefits like probiotics. It is important to be cautious when attributing probiotic properties to any specific organism without scientific evidence.
These bactera are: Streptobaccilus moniliformis and Spirillum minus.
