Clostridium perfringens is a gram positive, rod shaped bacteria that is often associated with food poisoning and gas gangrene. C. perfringens is most frequently responsible for released toxins and enzymes that cause tissue damage. These conditions are known as anaerobic cellulitis, myonecrosis, or gas gangrene. Other clostridia that are occasionally responsible include C. novyi and C. septicum, and others on very rare occasions....

Introduction There has been a lot of talk lately about the effectiveness of anaerobic digestion as a disposal method for abattoir waste streams. The principle of turning abattoir waste streams into electricity, fertilizer and hot water is certainly attractive and provided that disease control can be effectively incorporated into this process, it is difficult to find a more suitable and comprehensive way to dispose of the total waste stream generated by abattoirs on a daily basis....
