The isolates are aerotolerant, gram-positive, sporeforming, motile rods. They differ from all the validly described aerotolerant species of the genus Clostridium by carbohydrate fermentation pattern, guanine-plus-cytosine content of the deoxyribonucleic acid, and deoxyribonucleic acid homologies. The fermentation products from peptone-yeast extract-Fildes solution-1 % (wt/vol) glucose broth are major amounts of acetic and butyric acids. The guanine-plus-cytosine content of the deoxyribonucleic acid is 26 to 28 mol%. The type strain of Clostridium intestinalis is Catt39 (= ATCC 49213 and JCM 7506). %U https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/00207713-39-3-334
