The distribution of C. botulinum in wild caught and farmed finfish and shellfish in India was investigated. A total of 226 samples of finfish and shellfish were tested. An overall prevalence of 16% was found. The predominant types were type C and D (11%) followed by type B (3%) and type A (1%). Incidence of C. botulinum in wild caught and farmed shellfish was 18% and 23%, respectively. The predominant types were type D (13%) followed by type A (8%) and type C (2%).en_US
