Acinetobacteria spp.
Acinetobacter spp. is a group of gram-negative bacteria commonly found in soil, water, and occasionally in the human gut. Although they are not dominant in a healthy microbiome, certain strains can colonize the intestines, especially after antibiotic use or in hospital environments. Some species, such as Acinetobacter baumannii, are known for their antibiotic resistance and their role in infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals. In fecal analysis, the presence of Acinetobacter may reflect environmental exposure, microbial imbalance, or antibiotic-related changes in the gut flora.
Description
Acinetobacter spp. refers to a group of gram-negative bacteria that are commonly found in the environment and occasionally in the human gut.
Its presence may indicate gut dysbiosis or recent exposure to antibiotics or hospital-like environments.
Some strains, like A. baumannii, can be opportunistic pathogens, particularly in people with weakened immune systems.
Not necessarily, but elevated levels may be worth monitoring, especially in the context of symptoms or antibiotic history.

The home test was straightforward with easy to follow instructions. The test result was detailed and clear in its presentation. Also had the opportunity to ask questions about the test result.

We looked at a lot of companies offering the same services but made the decision to go forward with get tested because the labs are based here in the Europe. The process has been very straight forward.

There are other providers out there, I have tried 3. Gettested was the fastest and the customer service was the best. I even received my test on the day of purchase delivered by a motorbike courier.

I found them to be professional and not too long a wait for results. Helpful with any after questions. Will be using them again if need be. I highly recommend them.
