[Characteristics of spore formation in Clostridium botulinum type C].
Electron microscope study of C1. botulinum, tyep C, showed that microbial cells were surrounded with a five-layer wall. Structures characteristic of sporulating cells and phage particles whose intracellular development led to reduction and lysis of the cytoplasm were revelaed in the area of the cytoplasm. Mature spores were encountered rarely. Formation of prespore, cortex was observed, but the elements of the spore membrane were chaotically dispersed in the whole cytoplasm. Such disturbances could be connected with the presence of phage in the culture.
