Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) is a potent toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium perfringens that plays a significant role in causing gastrointestinal disorders and foodborne outbreaks
Occurence
Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CPE) occurs in several strains of C. perfringens. It is most commonly associated with Clostridium perfringens Type F strains, which are the main cause of C. perfringens food poisoning in humans
Clostridium perfringens Type A is another source of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin (CP…
