Sanada, Ichiro(Kanazawa University, Kanazawa, Japan),and Shoki Nishida. Isolation ofClostridium tetanifrom soil. J. Bacteriol.89:626–629. 1965.—The higher the temperatures applied to soil specimens, the weaker the toxigenicity ofClostridium tetanistrains isolated from them.

Clostridium Tetani Bacteremia From a Suspected Cutaneous Source. [PDF]
Bacteremia is a rare complication of Clostridium tetani infection. To our knowledge, there are only two case reports to date of C. tetani bacteremia, both hypothesized to be secondary to a gastrointestinal source.

Regulation of Clostridium tetani Neurotoxin Expression by Culture Conditions. [PDF]
Background: Ensuring consistency of tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT) production by Clostridium tetani could help to ensure consistent product quality in tetanus vaccine manufacturing, ultimately contributing to reduced animal testing.

Current trend in antimicrobial susceptibility pattern of Clostridium tetani isolated from soil samples in Kano [PDF]
The need for a regular assessment of the antimicrobial sensitivity patterns among tetanus causing as well as infectious members of Clostridia found in soil-human settlement provides a justification for the present study.

HLA-DR3 restricted environmental epitopes from the bacterium Clostridium tetani have T cell cross-reactivity to the SLE-related autoantigen SmD. [PDF]
HLA-DR3 (DR3) is one of the dominant HLA-DR alleles associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) susceptibility. Our previous studies showed multiple intramolecular DR3 restricted T cell epitopes in the Smith D (SmD) protein, from which we ...

Rapid Detection of Clostridium tetani by Recombinase Polymerase Amplification Using an Exo Probe. [PDF]
Tetanus is a potentially fatal public health illness resulted from the neurotoxins generated by Clostridium tetani. C. tetani is not easily culturable and culturing the relevant bacteria from infected wounds has rarely been useful in diagnosis; PCR-based

O Clostridium tetani e o tétano [PDF]
e uma bacteria descrita por Nicolaier em 1894, agente causador do tetano. A bacteria e isolada de amostras de solo, fezes de animais e homem e das feridas tetanigenas. E um bacilo anaerobio estrito, produtor de esporo que lhe permite sobreviver em condicoes de aerobiose e produtor de uma exotoxina que se fixa ao sistema nervoso, provocando a ...

The Role of the Gastrointestinal Tract in Toxigenic Clostridium tetani Infection: A Case-Control Study. [PDF]
. Tetanus arises from wound contamination with Clostridium tetani, but approximately one fifth of patients have no discernable entry wound. Clostridium tetani is culturable from animal feces, suggesting the gastrointestinal tract could be an endogenous ...

The Effect of Glutamate on Toxin Production by Clostridium tetani [PDF]
SUMMARY: The addition of sodium-L-glutamate (1%, w/v) to the Mueller medium in which Clostridium tetani was grown initially stimulated growth and toxin production, then caused early lysis, and resulted finally in a marked suppression in the titre of tetanus toxin in the culture measured after 7 days.
