DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2021.727022
Abstract: Isolates within the Clostridium estertheticum complex (CEC) have routinely been identified through the 16S rRNA sequence, but the high interspecies sequence similarity reduces the resolution necessary for species level identification and often results in ambiguous… read more here.

Abstract: The spoilage of vacuum-packed meat by Clostridium estertheticum complex (CEC), which is accompanied by or without production of copious amounts of gas, has been linked to the acetone–butyrate–ethanol fermentation, but the mechanism behind the variable… read more here.
