摘要: After the isolation of two strains ofClostridium butyricum that produced type E botulinal toxin from feces babies in Rome affected by infant botulism (P. Aureli, L. Fenicia, M. Gianfranceschi, McCroskey, and C. Hatheway, J Infect Dis 154:207–211, 1986), extensive research was carried out to detect toxin-producing clostridia soil samples vicinity Rome. A total 520 specimens cultivated pasture lands, obtained 52 collection stations, were examined.
