Cronobacter sakazakii Infection from Expressed Breast Milk, Australia
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cronobacter sakazakii neonatal infections are often epidemiologically linked to the consumption of contaminated powdered infant formula. We describe a case resulting from consumption of contaminated expressed breast milk, as confirmed by whole-genome sequencing. This case highlights potential risks associated with storage and acquisition of expressed breast milk.

Notes from the Field: Cronobacter sakazakii Infection Associated with Feeding Extrinsically Contaminated Expressed Human Milk to a Premature Infant — Pennsylvania, 2016
In April 2016, a female infant was born via Cesarean delivery at 29 estimated gestational weeks and had a birthweight of 3 pounds (1,405 grams). Her clinical course in the neonatal intensive care unit was unremarkable until she developed signs of sepsis at age 21 days. Cultures of blood and cerebrospinal fluid yielded Cronobacter sakazakii, a gram-negative pathogenic bacillus. Despite treatment...

متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of the Earliest Cronobacter sakazakii Sequence Type 4 Strain, NCIMB 8272
The Cronobacter sakazakii clonal lineage defined as sequence type 4 (ST4) is associated with severe cases of neonatal meningitis and persistence in powdered infant formula. For genome sequencing of the earliest deposited culture collection strain of Cronobacter sakazakii ST4, we used the strain NCIMB 8272, originally isolated from milk powder in 1950.

Cronobacter spp. (Enterobacter sakazakii) is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen capable of causing disease and even fatalities in newborn infants within the first weeks of life if consumed as part of the diet. Premature and immunocompromised newborn infants are at particular risk. The microorganism has been isolated from a variety of foods including contaminated infant milk formula powder and ...
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of Cronobacter sakazakii Strain CMCC 45402
Cronobacter sakazakii is considered to be an important pathogen involved in life-threatening neonatal infections. Here, we report the annotated complete genome sequence of C. sakazakii strain CMCC 45402, obtained from a milk sample in China. The major findings from the genomic analysis provide a better understanding of the isolates from China.
