Neurotoxigenic Clostridium butyricum was isolated from the food implicated in an outbreak of clinically diagnosed type E botulism in China. PCR assay showed that the isolate (LCL 155) contained the type E botulinum toxin gene. This appears to be the first report of neurotoxigenic C. butyricum causing food-borne botulism.
从与中国一起临床诊断为E型肉毒中毒暴发事件相关的食品中分离出了产神经毒素丁酸梭菌。聚合酶链反应检测表明,该分离株(LCL 155)含有E型肉毒杆菌毒素基因。这似乎是关于产神经毒素丁酸梭菌引起食源性肉毒中毒的首次报道。
