Description of strain FC3Tas the neotype strain of Actinobaculum massiliense.
Actinobaculum massiliense (Euzéby, 2006) was isolated from the urine of an elderly woman in 2001. Unfortunately, the strain deposited as the type strain was, by error, an Actinobaculum schaalii strain (Yassin et al., 2015). In 2015, we isolated a new strain of A. massiliense, FC3, from the urine of a 12-year-old patient with acute cystitis. We herein present the characteristics of strain FC3 (=CSUR P1982=DSM 100580) and formally propose it as the neotype strain of A. massiliense.
