Clostridium botulinum Group I and Clostridium sporogenes are closely related bacteria
responsible for foodborne, infant and wound botulism. A comparative genomic study with …

Motivation: Bioinformatics tools, such as assemblers and aligners, are expected to produce
more accurate results when given better quality sequence data as their starting point. This …

Taxonomic classification of Clostridium botulinum is based on the production of botulinum
neurotoxin (BoNT), while closely related, nontoxic organisms are classified as Clostridium …

Aims This study was performed in a well‐established in vitro model to investigate whether
the application of a glyphosate‐containing herbicide might affect the bacterial communities …

Clostridium botulinum is a dangerous pathogen that forms the highly potent botulinum toxin,
which when ingested causes a deadly neuroparalytic disease. The closely related …

Avocado fruit extracts are known to exhibit antimicrobial properties. However, the effects on
bacterial endospores and the identity of antimicrobial compounds have not been fully …

The presence of tens of Clostridium botulinum spores per gram of honey can cause infantile
botulism. Thermal treatment is insufficient to inactivate these resistant forms. This study …

Clostridium sporogenes forms highly heat resistant endospores, enabling this bacterium to
survive adverse conditions. Subsequently, spores may germinate, giving rise to vegetative …

Group I Clostridium botulinum and Clostridium sporogenes are physiologically and
genetically closely related. Both are widely distributed in the environment and can cause …

Clostridium botulinum is a highly dangerous pathogen that forms very resistant endospores
that are ubiquitous in the environment, and which, under favorable conditions germinate to …
