The authors studied the species-specific and quantitative composition of the large intestinal microbiocenosis on exposures to various factors of endo- and exogenous etiologies: the presence of a pathological process and its specific features, dietary trace element composition, unfavorable environmental (chemical) factors, as well as the impact of coexistence in the same family and the factors of family variability (the individual genotype of the macro-organism). The microenvironment of non spore-forming anaerobes that colonize the large bowel was found to be influenced by a number of various factors, both exo- and endogenous. The magnitude of these changes is associated with the intensity and specificity of an influencing factor.

Shoulder abscesses, commonly resulting from bacterial infections, can occasionally present with atypical etiologies and delayed onset. We report a rare case of a massive polymicrobial shoulder abscess developing two decades after an insect bite, emphasizing its clinical presentation, diagnostic approach, and surgical management. A 65-year-old female presented with severe, progressively worsening right shoulder pain, a 20 cm swelling, and purulent discharge persisting for 15 days.

A crude oil aggregation-forming, strictly anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, spore-forming, rod-shaped, motile and mesophilic bacterium, named strain SH18-2, was isolated from marine sediment near Sado Island in the Sea of Japan. The temperature, salinity and pH ranges of this strain for the growth were 15-40 °C (optimum 35 °C), 0.5-6.

Clostridioides difficile, a spore-forming anaerobic bacterium, is the primary cause of hospital antibiotic-associated diarrhea. Key virulence factors, toxins A (TcdA) and B (TcdB), significantly contribute to C. difficile infection (CDI).

Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive, spore-forming anaerobic enteropathogen responsible for a wide spectrum of clinical diseases ranging from mild diarrhoea to pseudomembranous colitis. It is the first cause of healthcare-associated diarrhoeas, but community-associated Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI) are increasingly reported in patients without the common risk factors (age > 65 years, previous antibiotic treatment). The main C.
