Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Clostridium difficile

Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Clostridium difficile

R Shuttleworth et al. J Clin Pathol. 1980 Oct.

Abstract

The antimicrobial susceptibilities of 78 strains of Clostridium difficile isolated from patients with and without gastrointestinal symptoms were determined and compared. Strains from patients with symptoms were more likely to show resistance to antibiotics. The antimicrobial susceptibilities of toxigenic and non-toxigenic strains were found to be similar.
