P Acnes Gram Stain. Microbes that live anywhere in the human body and are not pathogenic to humans ie. Propionibacterium acnes was isolated in high numbers from the placenta fetal lung and stomach contents. Characteristic colonies are shown in Figure 44D and E. Gram-positive bacilli on Gram stain should not be discounted as a contaminant in neurosurgical specimens.
Cells are often club shaped and occurs in sinly in pairs or short chains or in clumps. Culture in dextrose broth is cloudy or clear with fine granular precipitates. Acnes is an important part of the normal flora of human skin and it lives in and around sweat glands and sebaceous glands. Acnes was not detected in urine via Gram staining. Characteristic colonies are shown in Figure 44D and E. Pleomorphic Gram-positive rod-shaped bacteria were observed within the fibrin lattice associated with placental lesions and within the fetal atelectatic lung.
Found in human microbiome.
