Scientists have characterized an emerging virulent strain of Clostridium difficile that has been associated with outbreaks of severe disease in North America and Europe. Their findings are published ...

Affecting roughly half a million Americans each year, bacterial infections caused by Clostridioides difficile—commonly known as C. diff—are a serious and persistent problem for patients and hospitals ...

A new study paves the way for the development of next generation therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of Clostridioides difficile infection. C. difficile infection (CDI) is the most frequent ...

The presence of antigen-specific and neutralizing antibodies was not associated with Clostridioides difficile infection symptoms, severity, therapy approach, treatment response, or recurrences in a ...
