Anaerococcus nagyae is a bacterium from the family Peptoniphilaceae. It was first found in a blood culture from a patient with ischemia and influenza.[2] The cells of Anaerococcus nagyae are arranged in pairs.[2] Although it can weakly ferment mannose, studies has shown this anaerobic bacteria can not ferment glucose and raffinose.[2] A. nagyae is resistant to colistin, but it is susceptible to vancomycin and kanamycin.[2]
