Bacillus and Clostridium are both Gram positive, spore forming, bacilli (rods).
Bacillus sp. are aerobic.
Clostridium sp. are anaerobic.
After performing a catalase activity test, Clostridium will be negative and Bacillus will be positive for catalase activity.

What is the difference between clostridium gas gangrene and clostridium perfringens?
clostridium gas gangrene is an illness due to Clostridium clostridium perfringens is a bacteria and can be at the origin of gas gangrene
Differentiating between bacillus cereus and clostridium sporogenes?
The easiest way to distinguish one from the other is by performing an amylase test. Bacillus cereus will test positive by displaying a clear zone around the bacteria. Clostridium sporogenes will test negative because it does not produce the exoenzyme amylase. Another way is by performing a catalase test. Bacillus will test positive because it's an aerobe and Clostridium will test negative because it's anaerobic.
