It is a microaerophilic organism, which means it has a requirement for reduced levels of oxygen. Infection with Campylobacter jejuni is one of the most common causes of gastroenteritis worldwide; it occurs more frequently than do infections caused by Salmonella species, Shigella species, or Escherichia coli.
