Fine Structure of Sarcina maxima and Sarcina ventriculi [PDF]
The fine structure of Sarcina maxima and S. ventriculi was studied by electron and phase-contrast microscopy. The two organisms differ mainly with respect to their cell surface. A thick cellulose layer present on the cell wall of S.

A Rare Case of Emphysematous Gastritis Secondary to Organo-Axial Gastric Volvulus Associated With Sarcina ventriculi. [PDF]
Gastric volvulus is a potentially life-threatening condition that can compromise the blood supply to the stomach predisposing to ischemia, eventually necrosis and cell death associated with gas-forming bacteria.

Gastric Perforation Due to Sarcina ventriculi: A Histologically Confirmed Case. [PDF]
We present a case of a rare cause of gastric perforation and pneumoperitoneum, associated with Sarcina ventriculi. An 88-year-old male presented to the emergency room with significant abdominal pain as his chief complaint.

Sarcina ventriculi: Review of the Literature
Sarcina ventriculi is an increasingly common gram-positive coccus, recognized in gastric biopsies, particularly of patients with delayed gastric emptying. It occurs most commonly in adult women and can be identified easily by its characteristic morphologic features, such as basophilic staining, cuboid shape, tetrad arrangement, red blood cell–sized ...

The Metabolism of Formic Acid by Sarcina ventriculi [PDF]
SUMMARY: Sarcina ventriculi possesses a hydrogen-producing mechanism similar to that present in the coli-aerogenes group of bacteria. Formate is converted to hydrogen and carbon dioxide by formate hydrogenlyase and S. ventriculi is thus the only organism outside the coliform group known to possess this system.

Sarcina organism of the stomach: Report of a case
Sarcina Ventriculi is a gram-positive organism, rarely encountered as a human pathogen. It has been described in stomach specimens, often in patients with delayed gastric emptying. The exact role of this organism in human disease is not clear.

Fatal Outcome of Emphysematous Gastritis due to Sarcina ventriculi Infection
Sarcina ventriculi is an increasingly common bacterium with a variable pathogenic role. It is often an incidental finding in asymptomatic patients but can also lead to life-threatening conditions, such as gastric perforation and emphysematous gastritis ...

Pyruvate Metabolism in Sarcina maxima [PDF]
The mechanisms of pyruvate cleavage and hydrogen production by Sarcina maxima were studied. It was found that a phosphoroclastic system for pyruvate oxidation, similar to that occurring in saccharolytic clostridia, is present in S. maxima .
