Abstract
Some common seaweeds from the coastal waters of Nova Scotia supported the growth of certain saccharolytic species of Clostridium, especially Cl. pasteurianum. They did not support the growth of proteolytic species.Under anaerobic conditions many proteolytic species of Clostridium grow in cod, hake, pollock and lobster from small inocula. Saccharolytic types grow poorly in fish and require large inocula to initiate growth.Keywords
