Molecular Epidemiology of Endemic<i>Clostridium difficile</i>Infection and the Significance of Subtypes of the United Kingdom Epidemic Strain (PCR Ribotype 1)

1 Jun 2005

Abstract excerpt

We previously identified two subtypes of the epidemic strain Clostridium difficile PCR ribotype 1, one clindamycin-sensitive strain (arbitrarily primed PCR [AP-PCR] type Ia) and a closely related clindamycin-resistant strain (AP-PCR type Ib) in our institution. We have now carried out prospective epidemiological surveillance for 4 years, immediately following the relocation of two acute medicine wards for elderly...
