Description: Research project by Brennen Unrein on this anaerobic pathogenic bacterium which causes tetanus, including its classification, nutrition, adaptation and pathology.
is an anaerobic pathogenic bacterium that is primarily found in soil and animal intestinal tracts. As characteristic of all bacteria, bacteria are single-celled and do not contain any membrane-bound organelles, such as a nucleus. This bacterium is Gram-positive, meaning it lacks an outer lipopolysaccharide membrane and possesses only a thick peptidoglycan cellular wall. However, established vegetative bacterium occasionally stain Gram-negative, indicating a development of a thin lipopolysaccharide membrane. This bacterium is characteristically rod-shaped and flagellated in its vegetative state, and drumstick shaped in its spore form. There are currently eleven identified strains of
