A Flavobacterium lindanitolerans strain isolated from the ascites sample of a Chinese patient with EV71 virus infection.

Abstract

A strain of Flavobacterium lindanitolerans isolated from a sick child's ascites was described. The 16S rRNA gene of the strain was 100% identical to that of Flavobacterium lindanitolerans which was first identified in India in 2008. It was first described that the isolate required X factor (Hemin) for growth in the optimal conditions of 37 °C with 5% CO(2). The isolate produced indole and H(2)S. It did not present hemolytic feature on blood agar.
