The Hypervirulent Strain of Clostridium Difficile: NAP1/B1/027 - A Brief Overview

29 Jan 2019

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium difficile is a gram-positive bacterium notorious for causing epidemic diarrhea globally with a significant health burden. The pathogen is clinically challenging with increasing antibiotic resistance and recurrence rate. We provide here an in-depth review of one particular strain/ribotype 027, commonly known as NAP1/B1/027 or North American pulsed-field gel electrophoresis type 1, restriction...
