Target Introduction
Introduction Clostridium is a genus of rod-shaped, usually Gram-positive bacteria, members of which are found in soil, water, and the intestinal tracts of humans and other animals. The majority of species are obligate anaerobes. As the predominant bacteria in gut, Clostridium species exert lots of benefits to body health via interacting with intestine directly or indirectly. Clostridium species are potent candidates to alleviate dysfunctions and disorders in intestine, they have been reported to attenuate inflammation and allergic diseases effectively owing to their distinctive biological activities. Their cellular components and metabolites, like butyrate, secondary bile acids and indolepropionic acid, play a probiotic role primarily through energizing intestinal epithelial cells, strengthening intestinal barrier and interacting with immune system. In view of their salutary performances, Clostridium species have a huge potential as probiotics.

FAQs Customer Reviews Related Products
  1. What is the optimal growth condition for Clostridium butyricum?

    Clostridium butyricum thrives best in strictly anaerobic conditions with an optimal temperature range of 37°C. This strain requires a nutrient-rich medium that supports the production of butyric acid. To ensure proper growth, maintaining a pH range between 6.0 and 7.5 is crucial. The anaerobic environment can be achieved using anaerobic chambers or specialized media that support low oxygen levels​.

  2. How does Clostridium butyricum contribute to gut health?

    Clostridium butyricum is widely used in studies related to gastrointestinal health, metabolic diseases, and immune modulation. It is also utilized in research focusing on its role in preventing chemotherapy-induced diarrhea and its potential in treating Clostridium difficile infections. Researchers use this strain to investigate its probiotic effects, including the production of butyric acid and its impact on the gut microbiota.

  3. How is Clostridium butyricum administered in experimental setups?

    In research settings, Clostridium butyricum can be administered orally via gavage or mixed into the diet of animal models. For in vitro studies, it is cultured under anaerobic conditions and introduced into cell cultures or gut simulation models to study its effects on gut barrier integrity and immune responses. Proper handling and preparation under anaerobic conditions are essential to maintain the viability and activity of the bacteria.

  4. How should Clostridium butyricum be stored for long-term use?

    For long-term storage, Clostridium butyricum can be preserved by freezing at -80°C in a cryoprotectant solution such as 15-20% glycerol. Alternatively, lyophilization (freeze-drying) can be used to store the bacterial cultures at room temperature. These methods ensure the viability of the bacteria for extended periods, allowing for consistent experimental results upon revival​.

  5. How is the effectiveness of Clostridium butyricum assessed in research studies?

    The effectiveness of Clostridium butyricum in research studies can be assessed using various methods, including measuring butyric acid production, monitoring changes in gut microbiota composition through 16S rRNA sequencing, and evaluating its impact on intestinal health and immune responses. Functional assays such as anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory assays can also provide insights into the probiotic's effectiveness.
