Clostridium perfringens Panophthalmitis [PDF]
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1970 An example of Clostridium perfringens infection of the eye was related to the presence of a foreign body. Treatment resulted in recovery of the globe and preservation of light perception.

Toxin Plasmids of Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2013 SUMMARYIn both humans and animals,Clostridium perfringensis an important cause of histotoxic infections and diseases originating in the intestines, such as enteritis and enterotoxemia. The virulence of this Gram-positive, anaerobic bacterium is heavily dependent upon its prolific toxin-producing ability.

Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin
Microbial Pathogenesis, 1988Current knowledge of CPE action is briefly summarized in Figure 1. After specific binding to a protein receptor(s), the entire CPE molecule rapidly inserts into membranes forming a complex of 150,000 Mr. Almost simultaneously with insertion, there is a sudden change in ion fluxes.

Clostridium perfringens endophthalmitis
Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1994Our report describes a 35 year-old male who sustained a penetrating injury with an intraocular foreign body and developed endophthalmitis. Gram stain showed Gram positive bacilli and culture grew Clostridium perfringens. The patient was managed successfully by therapeutic vitrectomy and intravitreal and systemic antibiotic therapy. Early vitrectomy and

Clostridium perfringens in retail chicken
Anaerobe, 2010Clostridium perfringens isolates were recovered by enrichment from retail grocery chicken samples (n = 88) in Ontario, Canada, with one sample per site. The gene associated with necrotic enteritis in chickens, netB, was found in 21% of the isolates. The tpeL gene was found in 2% and the cpb2 gene in 68% (95% "atypical" genes) of isolates.

Clostridium perfringens and foodborne infections
International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2002Clostridium perfringens type A food poisoning is one of the more common in the industrialised world. This bacterium is also responsible for the rare but severe food borne necrotic enteritis. C. perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) has been shown to be the virulence factor responsible for causing the symptoms of C. perfringens type A food poisoning.

Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium perfringens
2007Clostridium is a diverse genus of Gram-positive, endospore-bearing obligate anaerobes that are widespread in the environment. This genus includes more than 100 species, and the overall range in the G+C content (22–55 mol%) reflects the enormous phylogenetic variation encompassed within this group.
