Abstract: | Summary A new chromogenic anaerobe, Clostridium roseum nov. spec., has been found. It is characterized by: red-orange pigment, turning purplish on oxidation; gelatin liquefaction and other evidence of proteolysis; nitrate reduction; fermentation of various carbohydrates including pectin; close resemblance to Cl. acetobutylicum in corn mash fermentation, with the same neutral products, acetone, ethyl alcohol and butyl alcohol, in nearly the same ratios; agglutinative specificity and separation from Cl. acetobutylicum and Cl. felsineum, as well as several less nearly physiologically related butyric anaerobes. |
