Microbiome profiling is the process of understanding the species present in a microbial community, also known as the microbiome. The microbiome can be present in many different environments, including the human gut. [news-medical.net]

• Gangrene

  Gas gangrene Gas gangrene generally occurs at the site of trauma or a recent surgical wound. The onset of gas gangrene is sudden and dramatic. About a third of cases occur on their own. [textbookofbacteriology.net]

  This is known as "clostridial myonecrosis" or "gas gangrene" and also results from toxins produced by C. perfringens. Gas gangrene can occur when deep wounds are contaminated with foreign objects containing the bacteria. [bccdc.ca]

  Clostridial cellulitis has a more gradual onset than gas gangrene and does not include the systemic toxemia associated with gas gangrene. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Food Poisoning

  Most food poisoning strains studied carry cpe in their chromosomes; isolates from AAD and SD cases bear cpe in a plasmid. [textbookofbacteriology.net]

  Who is at risk of C. perfringens food poisoning? Everyone is susceptible to food poisoning from C. perfringens. [cdc.gov]

  It is also a common cause of food poisoning when ingested in sufficient numbers. This commonly occurs when cooked food contaminated with the bacteria is left out (i.e. temperature abused), which allows rapid multiplication of C. perfringens. [bccdc.ca]

  Clostridium botulinum is the culprit responsible for the food poisoning and other problems associated with botulism. CONTINUE SCROLLING OR CLICK HERE FOR RELATED ARTICLE Reviewed on 12/27/2018 [medicinenet.com]

  Cooking kills the growing C. perfringens cells that cause food poisoning, but not necessarily the spores that can grow into new cells. If cooked food is not promptly served or refrigerated, the spores can grow and produce new cells. [foodsafety.gov]

  Diagnosis It is often difficult to distinguish C difficile disease from other intestinal diseases, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Confusion

  To add to the confusion, a few strains of C baratii and C butyricum have been reported to secrete botulinum toxin. In addition, certain proteolytic strains of C botulinum are indistinguishable from C sporogenes except by toxin assay. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Gram-Positive Rods

  Abstract Clostridium sordellii (C. sordellii) is an anaerobic gram-positive rod most commonly found in the soil and sewage but also as part of the normal flora of the gastrointestinal tract and vagina of a small percentage of healthy individuals. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  They are heterogeneous Gram-positive rods, anaerobic, fermentative, and spore forming inhabiting the human intestinal indigenous microbiota (Rocha et al. 1999). [scielo.br]

• Gram-Positive Bacteria

  Clostridium, genus of rod-shaped, usually gram-positive bacteria, members of which are found in soil, water, and the intestinal tracts of humans and other animals. Most species grow only in the complete absence of oxygen. [britannica.com]

  Clostridium is a genus of Gram-positive bacteria, which includes several significant human pathogens, including the causative agent of botulism. [en.wikipedia.org]

  In this scenario, gut commensal Clostridia consist of gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria in the phylum Firmicutes. [doi.org]

C. difficile is considered the etiologic agent of PMC and the major cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhea in adults, but the attribution of this organism to enteric diseases in children is less clear (Karlsson et al. 2000). [scielo.br]
