Influence of starch source on sporulation and enterotoxin production by Clostridium perfringens type A.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Of 16 different starch preparations tested, Clostridium perfringes NCTC 8798 yielded maximum sporulation and enterotoxin formation when ICN-soluble starch was included in Duncan and Strong sporulation medium. In general soluble starches were better than potato, corn, or arrowroot starch with regard to these two parameters.
