Erysipelothrix

/ˌɛrɪsɪˈpɛlətɪks/ noun

Definition

A genus of rod-shaped bacteria that causes erysipeloid infections in humans and various diseases in animals like pigs and poultry.

Etymology

From erysipelas combined with Greek thrix 'hair' or bristle-like appearance, describing the bacterium's morphology. The name scientifically categorizes organisms that cause erysipelas-like diseases.

Kelly Says

This bacterium has been infecting animals for centuries, and humans discovered it fairly recently—it's found in the environment and on animals worldwide, making it nearly impossible to completely avoid if you work with food!
