Characterization of Sporulation and Germination Genes in Clostridium perfringens

Creator:: Talukdar, Prabhat Kumar
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium that can produce as many as 17 different toxins and are responsible to cause a wide array of gastrointestinal (GI) and histotoxic diseases in humans and animals. As individual strains produce a subset of these toxins, C. perfringens strains can be classified...

Molecular mechanism of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores

Creator:: Paredes-Sabja, Daniel
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is the causative agent of a wide variety of diseases in animals and humans. C. perfringens can produce more than 15 toxins. However, individual strains produce a subset of these toxins. Although a small percentage of C. perfringens isolates (mostly belonging to type A) produce C. perfringens enterotoxin...

Clostridium perfringens spores : inactivation, germination, and formation

Creator:: Udompijitkul, Pathima
Abstract:: The enterotoxin-producing Clostridium perfringens type A isolates are responsible for the third most common foodborne illness in the United States and can also cause non-foodborne human gastrointestinal (GI) diseases such as antibiotic- associated and sporadic diarrheas. Three important factors contribute to the ability of C. perfringens to cause GI diseases,...

Characterization of germination of Clostridium perfringens spores from various sources

Creator:: Alnoman, Maryam M.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is a pathogenic anaerobic bacterium able to produce more than 17 toxins, allowing C. perfringins to cause a wide variety of diseases in humans and animals. Beside toxins production, C. perfringens able to form a highly resistance spores can survive in the environments for years. These spores are...

Clostridium perfringens sporulation and gliding motility

Creator:: Huang, I-Hsiu
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens type A isolates, an anaerobic enterotoxigenic spore forming bacterium, are the third leading cause of food-borne disease in the United States. Factors that contribute to the virulence of C. perfringens include the ability of the bacterium to form heat resistant spores and to produce an enterotoxin (CPE). Although...

Toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains of Clostridium botulinum type E : A. Differentiation by immunodiffusion : B. Attempts to induce toxigenicity by mutagenic agents

Creator:: Balstraz, Edwina Gene
Abstract:: In this study of toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains of Clostridium botulinum type E, attempts were made to induce toxin production in non-toxigenic cultures by exposure to mutagenic agents and to differentiate the organisms by immunodiffusion. First, cultures of non-toxic Cl. botulinum type E were exposed to various mutagenic agents in...

New Insights into the Molecular Mechanism of Clostridium perfringens Spore Germination

Creator:: Banawas, Saeed S.
Abstract:: C. perfringens is a spore-forming, gram-positive, anaerobic pathogenic bacterium capable of causing a wide variety of diseases in both humans and animals. However, the two most common illnesses in humans are C. perfringens type A food poisoning (FP) and non-food-borne (NFB) gastrointestinal (GI) illnesses. Interestingly, these two major diseases are...

Role of Plc in the germination of Clostridium perfringens food poisoning isolate SM101

Creator:: Bond, Colton B.
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens is the causative agent of gas gangrene and the 3rd most common cause of type A food borne disease in the United States. Critical to the pathogenicity of C. perfringens is the ability of this bacterium to produce highly resistant, metabolically dormant spores that can resume metabolic function...

Molecular basis for Clostridium perfringens spore resistance to heat and other environmental stress factors

Creator:: Raju, Deepa
Abstract:: Clostridium perfringens type A isolates producing enterotoxin (CPE) are an important cause of both food poisoning (FP) and non food borne gastrointestinal diseases (NFBGID) in both humans and animals. C. perfringens type A food poisoning is caused by isolates carrying the CPE encoding gene (cpe) on the chromosome while the...
