Résumé

The ability of Clostridium perfringens to survive cold encounters could contribute to its persistence in foods and its potential to cause disease. In this study, five cold-shock proteins were induced by cold-shocking C. perfringens FD-1041 from 43 °C to 28 °C, as revealed by labelling with L-(35S) methionine and cysteine followed by gel electrophoresis. Cold shock also increased the cold tolerance of the cells at least fifteen fold. The acquired tolerance was maintained for 2 hours after the cold treatment. This ability of C. perfringens could improve its survival in foods and present a significant hazard.
