Genome of a chronic osteitis-causing Clostridium tetani [PDF]

New Microbes and New Infections, 2014
We sequenced the genome of a Clostridium tetani strain that caused chronic tibial osteitis without any clinical sign of tetanus in a 26-year-old man previously vaccinated against this disease.

Clostridium tetani bacteraemia [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2013
Tetanus is a neuromuscular disease in which Clostridium tetani exotoxin (tetanospasmin) produces muscle spasms, incapacitating its host. To our knowledge, C. tetani bacteraemia has never been reported in the literature. The ideal management of this entity remains unresolved given that there is no literature to guide the therapy.

Ancient Clostridium DNA and variants of tetanus neurotoxins associated with human archaeological remains

Nature Communications, 2023
The analysis of microbial genomes from human archaeological samples offers a historic snapshot of ancient pathogens and provides insights into the origins of modern infectious diseases.

Genomics of Clostridium tetani [PDF]

Research in Microbiology, 2015
Genomic information about Clostridium tetani, the causative agent of the tetanus disease, is scarce. The genome of strain E88, a strain used in vaccine production, was sequenced about 10 years ago. One additional genome (strain 12124569) has recently been released. Here we report three new genomes of C.

Microwave assisted synthesis of novel 4h-chromene derivatives bearing phenoxypyrazole and their antimicrobial activity assess [PDF]

Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2012
A new series of 4H-chromene derivatives 4(a-p) bearing 5-phenoxypyrazole nucleus has been synthesized under microwave irradiation by reaction of 5-phenoxypyrazole-4-carbaldehyde 1(a-h), malononitrile 2 and compounds (Cyclohexanedione, Dimedon) 3(a-b ...

Clinical Profile, Management and Outcome in Paediatric Patients with Tetanus: A Case Series [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2023
Tetanus is an acute infectious disease, caused by spores of the bacterium Clostridium tetani. The spores are found everywhere in the environment, particularly in soil, ash, intestinal tracts/faeces of animals and humans, on the surfaces of skin and rusty

Tetanus as Cause of Mass Die-off of Captive Japanese Macaques, Japan, 2008

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
In 2008 in Japan, 15/60 captive Japanese macaques died. Clostridium tetani was isolated from 1 monkey, and 11 had tetanus-specific symptoms. We conclude the outbreak resulted from severe environmental C. tetani contamination.

Structural and functional analysis of hypothetical and conserved proteins of Clostridium tetani

Journal of Infection and Public Health, 2014
Summary: The progress in biological technologies has led to rapid accumulation of microbial genomic sequences with a vast number of uncharacterized genes. Proteins encoded by these genes are usually uncharacterized, hypothetical, and/or conserved.
