Isolation of Alpha-Toxin-Deficient Clostridium perfringens Type F from Sewage Influents and Effluents.

Microbiology spectrum - 3 Sept 2021

Yanagimoto Keita, Haramoto Eiji

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium perfringens is classified into types A to G, and all types produce alpha-toxins; however, C. perfringens type F that is negative for phospholipase C (PLC) activity of alpha-toxin has been isolated from the environment and cases of humans afflicted by food poisoning. This study aimed to elucidate the distribution of PLC-negative C. perfringens type F in sewage influents and effluents. Influents and...
