Influence of high gas production during thermophilic anaerobic digestion in pilot-scale and lab-scale reactors on survival of the thermotolerant pathogens Clostridium perfringens and Campylobacter jejuni in piggery wastewater [PDF]
Safe reuse of animal wastes to capture energy and nutrients, through anaerobic digestion processes, is becoming an increasingly desirable solution to environmental pollution.

Progress and problems in vaccination against necrotic enteritis in broiler chickens [PDF]
Necrotic enteritis in broilers is caused by Clostridium perfringens type A strains that produce the NetB toxin. Necrotic enteritis is one of the gastrointestinal diseases in poultry that has gained worldwide importance during the last decade due to ...

The Bacteriophages of Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
SUMMARY: A search has been made for phages active on Clostridium perfringens, types A, B, C, D, E, and F. Twelve of 49 type A strains, 10 of 31 type B strains, 10 of 26 type C strains and none of either 38 type D, 5 type E or 3 type F strains were lysogenic.

The Nutritional Requirements of Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
SUMMARY: The requirements for growth factors, amino acids and inorganic constituents were determined for three strains of Clostridium perfringens (Veillon & Zuber) Holland. A number of substances were tested as energy sources for this organism, and the influence of pH value and temperature on growth was determined. The minimal medium evolved contained:

The C-terminal domain of Clostridium perfringens alpha toxin as a vaccine candidate against bovine necrohemorrhagic enteritis [PDF]
Bovine necrohemorrhagic enteritis is caused by Clostridium perfringens and leads to sudden death. Alpha toxin, together with perfringolysin O, has been identified as the principal toxin involved in the pathogenesis.

Proteolytic processing and activation of Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin by caprine small intestinal contents. [PDF]
Epsilon toxin (ETX), a pore-forming toxin produced by type B and D strains of Clostridium perfringens, mediates severe enterotoxemia in livestock and possibly plays a role in human disease.

Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin induces blood brain barrier permeability via caveolae-dependent transcytosis and requires expression of MAL. [PDF]
Clostridium perfringens epsilon toxin (ETX) is responsible for causing the economically devastating disease, enterotoxaemia, in livestock. It is well accepted that ETX causes blood brain barrier (BBB) permeability, however the mechanisms involved in this
