Clostridium bacteria. Computer artwork of Clostridium sp. bacteria. These are Gram-positive, rod-shaped, spore-forming bacteria that are found in soil, and human and animal intestines. Although some species are harmless several cause human disease, including C. botulinum, which causes botulism, C. tetani, which causes tetanus, and C. difficile, which causes pseudomembranous colitis.
