Biological Characteristics of Clostridium perfringens Type A Enterotoxin [PDF]
An enterotoxin with the ability to induce fluid accumulation in rabbit ileal loops, erythema in the skin of guinea pigs, and lethality in mice appears in cell extracts (CE) and culture filtrates (CF) of sporulating cells of some Clostridium perfringens type A strains.

A Framework for Evaluation of New Processing Technologies in Human Milk Banking
ABSTRACT The purpose of this review was to devise a framework for validation studies to test new processing technologies in human milk banking. Human milk banks are an expanding service globally. They provide donor human milk to predominantly preterm and low‐birth‐weight infants, who represent a vulnerable population.

Clostridium perfringens (C. perfringens) is responsible for food-borne gastroenteritis and other infectious diseases, and toxins produced by this bacterium play a key role in pathogenesis. Although various toxins have been described for C.

Porcine Clostridium perfringens type A spores, enterotoxin and antibody to enterotoxin
Forty-two Clostridium perfringens type A strains isolated from cases of diarrhoea in pigs were tested for their ability to sporulate and produce enterotoxin in three different sporulation media. Enterotoxin was produced by 11 of the 42 C perfringens type A isolates (26.2 per cent).

Enterotoxin formation by different toxigenic types of Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
Sixty-nine strains of Clostridium perfringens of different toxigenic types were investigated for enterotoxin production. Enterotoxin was definitively detected only in strains of types A and C. This is the first report where enterotoxin production has been demonstrated in a toxigenic type other than type A.

Genome sequencing of multidrug resistant novel Clostridium sp. BL8 reveals its potential for pathogenicity [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The human gut microbiome is important for maintaining the health status of the host. Clostridia are key members of the human gut microbiome, carrying out several important functions in the gut environment.

Assay Methods for Clostridium perfringens Type A Enterotoxin [PDF]
Enterotoxin produced by a sporulating culture of Clostridium perfringens type A NCTC 8798 was purified to a level of 3,500 mouse mean lethal doses per mg of nitrogen. High-titer sera were obtained from rabbits injected with enterotoxin and used to compare the sensitivity of serological tests and bioassays for

Enteric Diseases of Poultry with Special Attention to Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
Several enteric disorders affect poultry and cause illness, mortality and economic losses. The ban on antibiotic growth promoters increased the problem by allowing intestinal bacteria, influenced by predisposing factors, to destroy the internal lining

Preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis purification of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin [PDF]
Preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis has been used to purify the enterotoxin of Clostridium perfringens from Sephadex G-100 extracts. Purified toxin of high specific activity was eluted in 1 to 3 h, depending upon the length of the acrylamide gel used. Recovery of biological activity with this technique ranged from 80 to 90%.

Abstract An 8‐year‐4‐month‐old, female, neutered labrador retriever with acute haemorrhagic diarrhoea was unresponsive to symptomatic and antibiotic treatment, and developed gastrointestinal protein loss leading to significant hypoalbuminaemia.
