Abstract excerpt

UNLABELLED: Asymptomatic infant carriers of toxigenic Clostridium difficile are suggested to play a role in the transmission of C. difficile infection (CDI) in adults. However, the mode of C. difficile carriage in infants remains to be fully elucidated. We investigated longitudinal changes in carriage rates, counts, and strain types of toxigenic C. difficile in infants. Stools collected from 111 healthy infants...
