Description

The relationships between the heat resistance or serological types of Clostridium perfringens (identified by Benoki's criterion) isolated from fishes and especially the salicin fermentability of their biochemical properties were investigated. The results obtained from the experiments are as follows.<BR>1) Forty-eight strains out of the 198 isolated Clostridium perfringens strains were salicin-fermentative (acid, or acid and gas). In heat-resistant (100°C, 60min) strains, 11 strains out of the 15 strains isolated were salicin-fermentative (Table 1). The detection rate of salicin-fermenters in the isolates from heated (80°C, 20min) specimens was relatively high per cent i. e. 65, but that in the isolates from unheated specimens was no more than 16 per cent (Table 2).<BR>2) Though the agreement rate of the salicin-fermenters with Hobbs' Serological Types was no more than 25 per cent, it was higher in comparison with that (13 per cent) of the salicin-unfermenters (Table 3). Putting together Hobbs' standard strains and the Hobbs' Type isolates, there was no correlation between each of the serological types of Hobbs' Type strains and the salicin-fermentability (Table 4).
