Infections: Acidaminococcus fermentans has been implicated in opportunistic infections, particularly in immunocompromised individuals or those with underlying health conditions. These infections may include abscesses, wound infections, bacteremia (bloodstream infections), and infections associated with medical devices or implants.
Dental and oral health: Acidaminococcus fermentans is part of the oral microbiota and can contribute to dental plaque formation. While it is generally considered a commensal bacterium, overgrowth or dysbiosis in the oral microbiota, along with factors such as poor oral hygiene, may contribute to dental caries (cavities), periodontal disease, and other oral health problems.
Digestive health: Acidaminococcus fermentans, like other Acidaminococcus species, plays a role in the fermentation of dietary carbohydrates and amino acids in the gastrointestinal tract. While this fermentation process contributes to gut metabolism and the production of short-chain fatty acids and other metabolites beneficial for digestive health, dysregulation or overgrowth of Acidaminococcus fermentans may potentially contribute to gastrointestinal disorders or dysbiosis.
Metabolic disorders: Some studies have suggested associations between alterations in the gut microbiota, including changes in the abundance of Acidaminococcus fermentans and other bacteria, and certain metabolic disorders such as obesity, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. However, the specific role of Acidaminococcus fermentans in these conditions requires further investigation.

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.
