Resumen:
Clostridium perfringens type E is considered a rare toxinotype and an infrequent causeof enterotoxemia of lambs, calves, and rabbits. Until now, only cases of young animalof C. perfringens type E bovine enterotoxemia, characterized by hemorrhagic enteritisand sudden death, have been reported. The present report details the genotypiccharacterization of C. perfringens type E isolates obtained from intestinal samples ofadult cattle during an outbreak of enterotoxemia in Argentina. The sequences of severalhousekeeping genes of these isolates were analyzed and compared with those obtainedfrom calves in North America showing a clonal unique lineage.
