title: [Characterization of species of the genus Clostridium by gas chromatographic analysis of the fatty acids produced during metabolism].
abstract: Volatile and non volatile fatty acids deriving from the bacterial metabolism of different sugars were determined by gas-chromatography to better characterize Clostridium tertium and Clostridium ramosum. The data obtained were also used for numerical taxonomic analysis and dendrograms were elaborated to study the taxonomic relationships between the two species.
