They can be collected by the "roll tube" or "glove box" methods, or with the aid of a catalyst of palladium-coated alumina particles, found on the lid of a namesake "jar." The best-understood infectious mechanism associated with one of these is that of the clostridia. The obligate kind lacks the catalase, peroxidase, and critical dismutase that allow their facultative counterparts to flourish, and instead use organic molecules as final hydrogen acceptors in a fermentation process. For ten points, name this type of organism commonly found in the colon, which cannot survive in the presence of oxygen.
