Abstract

Most infant botulism cases worldwide are due to botulinum toxin types A and B. Rarely,Clostridium botulinumstrains that produce two serotypes (Ab, Ba, and Bf) have also been isolated from infant botulism cases. This is the first reported case of infant botulism due toC. botulinumtype Af worldwide.
