Characterization of <i>C. difficile</i> strains isolated from companion animals and the associated changes in the host fecal microbiota

2019-10-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Clostridioides difficile is an enteric pathogen historically known to cause hospital associated (HA)-infections in humans. A major risk factor for CDI in humans is antibiotic usage as it alters the gut microbiota and there is a loss of colonization resistance against C. difficile . In recent years there has been an increase in community associated (CA)- C. difficile infection that does not h...
