Abstract excerpt

The discriminatory potential of a combination of various typing methods was evaluated on a set of 21 Clostridium difficile isolates obtained from symptomatic patients hospitalized in a geriatric unit and 7 non-toxigenic isolates from the same hospital. Isolates were firstly serotyped and toxinotyped. Of the 28 isolates, 19 belonged to serogroup A. PCR-ribotyping and PCR-RFLP on the fliC and slpA genes were then...
