Survival of Clostridium Difficile and Its Toxins in Equine Feces: Implications for Diagnostic Test Selection and Interpretation

1 Jul 2000

Abstract excerpt

Although Clostridium difficile is recognized as a cause of enterocolitis in horses and humans, there has been little work published regarding the lability of C. difficile and its toxins in feces. A significant decrease in recovery of C. difficile from inoculated equine fecal samples occurred during storage. Recovery after storage in air at 4 degrees C decreased from 76% (37/49) after 24 hours to 67% (33/49) at 48...
