Clostridioides difficile infection with isolates of cryptic clade C-II: a genomic analysis of polymerase chain reaction ribotype 151
9 Dec 2022
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: We report a patient case of pseudomembranous colitis associated with a monotoxin-producing Clostridioides difficile belonging to the very rarely diagnosed polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ribotype (RT) 151. To understand why this isolate was not identified using a routine commercial test, we performed a genomic analysis of RT151. METHODS: Illumina short-read sequencing was performed on n = 11 RT151s...
