A rare strain of Clostridium botulinum subtype Ab was isolated from a canned macrobiotic food suspected of being linked to a fatal case of food-borne botulism. The strain was recovered and identified by conventional methods modified by the inclusion of a PCR assay (G. Franciosa, J.L. Ferreira, and C.L. Hatheway, J. Clin. Microbiol. 32:1911-1917, 1994). The titers of neurotoxins produced by the strain were evaluated by a mouse bioassay.
从一罐疑似与一起食源性肉毒中毒致死病例有关的健康食品罐头中分离出一种罕见的肉毒梭菌A b型菌株。通过纳入PCR检测法改良的常规方法对该菌株进行了回收和鉴定（G. 弗兰乔萨、J.L. 费雷拉和C.L. 哈思韦，《临床微生物学杂志》32:1911 - 1917, 1994年）。通过小鼠生物测定法评估了该菌株产生的神经毒素效价。
