Epsilon-Toxin Plasmids of Clostridium perfringens Type D Are Conjugative [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2007
ABSTRACT Isolates of Clostridium perfringens type D produce the potent epsilon-toxin (a CDC/U.S. Department of Agriculture overlap class B select agent) and are responsible for several economically significant enterotoxemias of domestic livestock.

Virulence Plasmid Diversity inClostridium perfringensType D Isolates [PDF]

open access: yesInfection and Immunity, 2007
ABSTRACTClostridium perfringenstype D isolates are important in biodefense and also cause natural enterotoxemias in sheep, goats, and occasionally cattle. In these isolates, the gene (etx) encoding ε-toxin is thought to reside on poorly characterized large plasmids.

The Pathology of Peracute Experimental Clostridium Perfringens Type D Enterotoxemia in Sheep [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Diagnostic Investigation, 2004
The pathological findings in sheep with peracute experimental Clostridium perfringens type D enterotoxemia are described. Of 16 animals inoculated intraduodenally with a whole culture of this microorganism and a starch solution in the abomasum, 12 developed clinical signs including increased respiratory efforts, recumbency, paddling, bleating ...

Genotyping of Clostridium perfringens associated with sudden death in cattle

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2009
Toxigenic types of Clostridium perfringens are significant causative agents of enteric disease in domestic animals, although type E is presumably rare, appearing as an uncommon cause of enterotoxemia of lambs, calves and rabbits.
