Preliminary molecular analysis of Clostridium difficile isolates from healthy horses in northern Italy.

Comparative immunology, microbiology and infectious diseases - 1 Dec 2010

Ossiprandi Maria Cristina, Buttrini Mirko, Bottarelli Ezio, Zerbini Laura

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium difficile, associated with a wide spectrum of diseases in humans, as well as in several animal species, is an important cause of colitis in adult horses and foals. The aim of this study was to investigate by toxin gene profile and PCR-ribotyping the molecular characteristics of 14 C. difficile strains isolated from 42 faeces of healthy horses. Both toxin genes, tcdA and tcdB, were present in only 1...
