Sumario:Cronobacter sakazakii is an emerging pathogen that causes meningitis, bacteremia, sepsis, and necrotizing enterocolitis in premature infants. Strain Cr268 was isolated from imported powdered infant formula in 2009 during routine microbial examination according to ISO-22964 (“Microbiology of the food chain—horizontal method for the detection of Cronobacter spp.”). Isolate Cr268 was confirmed to be C. sakazakii by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and standard biochemical analysis. Here, we announce its genome, which represents a new member in the C. sakazakii group.
