Clostridium butyricum is one of the species frequently present in patients' stool samples. However, the identification of this species is sometimes difficult. Here, we present the draft genome of Clostridium butyricum NOR 33234, which was isolated from a patient with suspected Clostridium difficile infection-associated diarrhea and resembles Clostridium clostridioforme in biochemical tests.
丁酸梭菌是患者粪便样本中经常出现的菌种之一。然而,该菌种的鉴定有时会很困难。在此,我们展示了丁酸梭菌NOR 33234的基因组草图,它是从一名疑似艰难梭菌感染相关性腹泻患者中分离出来的,在生化测试中与梭形梭菌相似。
