Differences in virulence and drug resistance between Clostridioides difficile ST37 and ST1 isolates
9 May 2025
Abstract excerpt
One of the most common hospital-acquired infections is caused by toxigenic Clostridioides difficile. Although C. difficile ST37 only produces a functional toxin B, it causes disease as severe as that caused by hypervirulent ST1. We aim to compare the differences in virulence and drug resistance between ST37 and ST1 isolates. We conducted whole-genome sequencing on ST37 and ST1 isolates, analyzing their...
