Background: Cronobacter sakazakii is a member of the genus Cronobacter that has frequently been isolated from powdered infant formula (PIF) and linked with rare but fatal neonatal infections such as meningitis and necrotising enterocolitis. The Cron... Read More about Genomic dissection of the 1994 Cronobacter sakazakii outbreak in a French neonatal intensive care unit.
