First Identification of Clostridium celerecrescens in Liquid Drained from an Abscess

We present the first report on the characterization of Clostridium celerecrescens isolated from liquid drained via abscess puncture from a 45-year-old man. The organism was identified by sequence comparison of 16S rRNA genes.
