Reference Susceptibility Testing and Genomic Surveillance ofClostridioides difficile, United States, 2012–17

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is not routinely performed for Clostridioides difficile and data evaluating minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) are limited. We performed AST and whole genome sequencing (WGS) for 593 C. difficile isolates collected between 2012 and 2017 through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Emerging Infections Program. METHODS: MICs to 6 antimicrobial...
