Putrefying/decay bacteria are bacteria involved in putrefaction of living matter. Along with other decomposers, they play a critical role in recycling nitrogen from dead organisms. Putrefying bacteria also play a role in putrefaction and fermentation of proteins in the human gastrointestinal tract.

dbo:abstract
  • Putrefying/decay bacteria are bacteria involved in putrefaction of living matter. Along with other decomposers, they play a critical role in recycling nitrogen from dead organisms. Putrefying bacteria also play a role in putrefaction and fermentation of proteins in the human gastrointestinal tract. Putrefying bacteria is a broad term used to define several species of bacteria involved in decomposition and fermentation. Putrefying bacteria play a key role in decomposing and fermenting substances within the body as well as the body itself after death. Putrefaction is defined as the final step of decomposition after death. Because these bacteria play a role in decomposition after death, putrefying bacteria also play a key role in the nitrogen cycle. They deconstruct and convert substances from dead organisms so nitrifying bacteria can then convert these products into a usable form of nitrogen. (en)
