How is clostridium perferingens detected?
C. perfringens can be diagnosed by Nagler's Reaction where the organism is cultured on an egg yolk media plate. One side of the plate contains anti-alpha-toxin, while the other side does not. The suspect organism is placed on both sides. An area of turbidity will form around the side that does not have the anti-alpha-toxin,indicating that this is C. perfringens.
What resistant forms of bacteria are produced by gram positive bacilli of the most dangerous disease bacteria?
Your question is not clear. Do you mean do some Gram + bacilli produce resistant forms. If so, you are thinking of those bacteria that produce endospores. They form these when the environment becomes hash and unlivable for them. Most studies have been with Bacillus subtilitus and Clostridium. These four Clostridium have clinical interest because of the diseases they cause: C. botulinum, C. difficile, C. perfringens and C. tetani.B. subtilitus is not really a pathogen but is now considered a normal gut bacteria.
Is gas gangrene dangerous?
haha idk Okay... Anyway, gas gangrene is mostly caused by a bacteria called Clostridium Perfringes. The bacteria enters the site of trauma or a wound, and then begins producing spores and creating toxins. The toxins destroy tissue and generate gas.(Thus the name Gas Gangrene. Gangrene is a complication of necrosis, or the death of cells or tissue.) It is an often fatal. The treatments are surgery, antibiotics(with limited succes), and hyperbaric oxygen is being tried with varying degrees of succes. If the bacterium are not removed then they will keep spreading. It can cause: air under the skin, anxiety, increased heart rate, fever, severe pain around the injury, skin discoloration, swelling, sweating, blisters, and jaundice(yellow skin color). Symptoms become visible minutes after infection, it is an extremely rapidly progressing disease. Without treatment the condition worsens, progressing from low-blood pressure, to kidney failure, to a coma, and finally to death.
