Genetic characterization of Clostridium botulinum associated with type B infant botulism in Japan.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Sept 2009

Umeda Kaoru, Seto Yoshiyuki, Kohda Tomoko, Mukamoto Masafumi, Kozaki Shunji

Abstract excerpt

The 15 proteolytic Clostridium botulinum type B strains, including 3 isolates associated with infant botulism in Japan, were genetically characterized by phylogenetic analysis of boNT/B gene sequences, genotyping, and determination of the boNT/B gene location by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) for molecular epidemiological analysis of infant botulism in Japan. Strain Osaka05, isolated from a case in...
