Abstract excerpt

Clostridioides difficile is the most common causative agent of healthcare-associated diarrhea. C. difficile strains produce a crystalline surface layer protein (SlpA), encoded by the slpA gene. Previous studies have shown that SlpA varies among C. difficile strains. In this study, we used the SlpA sequence-based typing system (SlpAST) for the molecular genotyping of C. difficile clinical isolates identified in...
