Clostridium putrificum in association with post‐operative tetanus

The Strict Anaerobes in the Slime and Intestines of the Haddock (Gadus Aeglefinus)

“…Glycerol: Acid and gas? After The organism is non-pathogenic, and appears to be related to Clostridium lentoputrescenm of Hartsell and Rettger (1934) and Clostridium putrificum of Morgan and Wright (1934), with the latter of which it was compared under the same experimental conditions. It has been shown, however, to be distinct serologically from the organism of Morgan and Wright, obtained from the National Collection of Type Cultures, London.…”

“…It has been shown, however, to be distinct serologically from the organism of Morgan and Wright, obtained from the National Collection of Type Cultures, London. Without entering into the controversy on the question of the identity of Clostridium putrificus Bienstock (see Cunningham (1932), Reddish and Rettger (1922, 1923, Morgan and Wright (1934), Weinberg and Ginsbourg (1927)), it is concluded that this organism is of the C. putrificum type.…”
