  • Title: [Differentiation of the main species of Clostridium by gas chromatography].
    Author: Bychenko BD, Kaplunova OP, Kurdina DS.
    Journal: Zh Mikrobiol Epidemiol Immunobiol; 1985 Oct; (10):22-5. PubMed ID: 2868589.
    Abstract:
    For the first time in the USSR the properties of microorganisms of the genus Clostridium have been studied with the use of the gas-chromatographic techniques. The analysis of the quantitative and qualitative composition of extracellular alcohols and carboxylic acids in 99 museum and newly isolated strains of 18 Clostridium species has made it possible to classify these microorganisms with 7 sharply differing groups. The above techniques permit the classification of clostridia with one of the groups within 2 hours if the microbial cultures have been grown in glucose-containing peptone yeast medium.
