Follow on Google News | Tetanus & Clostridium tetani Exposed in New Online VideoThe IAQ Video Network produces another educational video about environmental dangers due to exposure to environmental contaminants and pathogens.
Tetanus is an acute, often fatal, disease caused by an exotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani. It is characterized by generalized rigidity and convulsive spasms of the skeletal muscles. The muscle stiffness usually involves the jaw and neck and then becomes generalized throughout the body. Clostridium tetani is a slender, gram-positive, anaerobic rod that may develop a terminal spore. The organism is sensitive to heat and cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. The spores; however, are very resistant to heat and many antiseptics. “These spores are widely distributed in soil and in the intestines and feces of horses, sheep, cattle, dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs and chickens,” reported Paul Cochrane, President of Cochrane and Associates, the company behind the IAQ Video Network and the new public outreach video. “Manure- To view this video please visit http://www.IAQTV.com or http://www.youtube.com/ To learn more please visit http://www.cochraneassoc.com, email info@cochraneassoc.com or call (602)510-3179. # # # About Cochrane & Associates, LLC & the IAQ Video Network Cochrane & Associates is a business development, public relations and marketing consulting firm that specializes in the environmental, HVAC, mold and indoor air quality industries.
