Prevotella histicola are Gram-negative bacilli that are obligately anaerobic, vary in pigmentation and are non-motile.

Prevotella histicola
Description and significance
Prevotella histicola are Gram-negative bacilli that are obligately anaerobic, vary in pigmentation and are non-motile. It is part of the normal flora of the human oral microbiota and is generally commensual, but are known to intrude the epithelial cells lining the cheeks. The Prevotella species are affiliated with many oral diseases and certain infections found in other areas of the human body.[2][3]

Environment
Prevotella histicola is found in the mucosal tissues of the human oral cavity.[2] The human oral cavity is the threshold to the human body. Energy, food, enters the mouth, is broken down and is mixed with saliva prior to traveling through the remainder of the body. This aids in the possibility of spreading the bacteria from the mouth to other parts of the body.
