Shape â Clostridium perfringens is a large, rod shape (bacillus) bacterium with straight, parallel sides and rounded or truncated ends. (labionix.kz)
But it should be noted that there is still safety concern about the exotoxin secretion of some Clostridium species, like alpha-toxin and enterotoxin from Clostridium perfringens ( C. perfringens ), toxin A and toxin B from Clostridium difficile ( C. difficile ) [ 10 , 11 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
This spoilage is caused by Gram-negative obligate anaerobic spore formers Disulfotomacillum nigrificans , Clostridium bifermentans , and Clostridium sporogenes in low-acid canned food. (microbenotes.com)

The most frequently identified aerobic gram-negative bacteria were Escherichia coli , Proteus species , Pseudomonas aeruginosa , and Klebsiella pneumoniae . (medscape.com)
The highly proteolytic nature of Clostridium sporogenes is thought possibly to act as an adjuvant and promote invasiveness of other bacteria in various mixed infections of animals and humans a generalized lethal disease, possibly egg-borne, in newly hatched chicks has been attributed to C. sporogenes. (labionix.kz)
Clostridium species, as a predominant cluster of commensal bacteria in our gut, exert lots of salutary effects on our intestinal homeostasis. (biomedcentral.com)
Species of Clostridium cluster XIVa and IV, as the representatives of the predominant bacteria in gut, account for 10-40% of the total bacteria [ 5 ]. (biomedcentral.com)
Bacillus1
Clostridium sporogenes is an anaerobic, gram-positive bacillus that comprises a part of the normal intestinal flora. (labionix.kz)
Anaerobic2
A recent clinical series on gas gangrene demonstrated a predominance (83.3%) of aerobic gram-negative bacilli in wound cultures compared with anaerobic gram-positive bacilli, with Clostridium species accounting for 4.5% of the isolates. (medscape.com)
Like other strains of Clostridium, it is an anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium that produces oval, subterminal endospores[2] and is commonly found in soil. (labionix.kz)
The authors state that clostridium sporogenes are spore forming and gram forming to produce carboxylic acids which are necessary during the reaction in cancer therapy. (labionix.kz)
Intestinal1
So this review summarized the reports about both the benefits and underlying risks from Clostridium species on intestinal immune regulation and disease prevention to elucidate the potentials and challenges of their novel roles as probiotic. (biomedcentral.com)
Alpha toxin1
Significant variance exists among clostridial species as to the mechanism of action of the alpha toxin. (medscape.com)
Gangrene2
Gas gangrene and clostridial myonecrosis are interchangeable terms used to describe an infection of muscle tissue by toxin-producing clostridia. (medscape.com)
Since C. sporogenes is found in the intestines, infections typically cause gas gangrene. (labionix.kz)
Obligate1
Clostridia are obligate anaerobes, but some species are relatively aerotolerant. (medscape.com)
Bacterial1
In the intestine of human and animals, Clostridium species, as one of the richest bacterial cluster, are mainly composed of Clostridium cluster IV and XIVa (Fig. 1 ). (biomedcentral.com)
Identification1
