Isolation and characterization of Clostridium perfringens strains isolated from ostriches (Struthio camelus) in Vietnam

Abstract excerpt

Background and Aim: Clostridium perfringens can cause enteritis in ostriches. The toxin release is believed to play a major role in determining pathogenesis properties of these pathogenic bacteria. This study was conducted to isolate and characterize C. perfringens strains from ostriches in Vietnam for identifying if particular virulence factors of these pathogenic bacteria are associated with enteritis progress...
