Abstract

 For many years, the role of anaerobic bacteria in human disease
 was considered important only in such clostridial diseases as gas gangrene,
 botulism and tetanus. In the last 10 years, however, the development
 of new methods to isolate and identify anaerobic bacteria has established
 the pathogenic role of non-sporeforming anaerobic bacteria in a
 wide variety of clinical infections in humans. Bacteroides fragilis is
 now known to account for approximately one-fourth of all anaerobic
 bacteria isolated from human clinical specimens.
