Clostridium perfringens causes a wide range of symptoms, from food poisoning to cellulitis, fasciitis, necrotic enteritisand gas gangrene.

Clostridium tetani causes tetanus.

Clostridium sordellii (now Paeniclostridium) can cause a fatal infection in exceptionally rare cases after medical abortions.

Bacillus and Clostridium are often described as Gram-variable, because they show an increasing number of gram-negative cells as the culture ages.

Clostridium and Bacillus are both in the phylum Firmicutes, but they are in different classes, orders, and families. Microbiologists distinguish Clostridium from Bacillus by the following features
