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

Incidence of some anaerobic bacteria isolated from chicken meat products with special reference to Clostridium perfringens [PDF]
Anaerobic spore formers, especially Clostridium perfringens, represent one of the most prevalent bacterial food poisoning outbreaks which mostly related to consumption of contaminated meat and meat products, therefore, a total of 125 random raw and half ...
