Bacillus circulans
A large aerobic, gram-positive or gram-variable bacillus that produces endospores. It is a thermotolerant bacterium, capable of growth at 50oC (122oF). It is isolated primarily from soil. Usually considered nonpathogenic for humans but may cause wound infections, septicemia, and rarely meningitis.
