Characterization of Clostridium difficile Strains Isolated from Patients with C. difficile-associated Disease in Korea
Objectives Studies on Clostridium difficile are rare in Korea. We investigated the epidemiological characteristics of C. difficile isolates from patients with C. difficile-associated disease (CDAD) in Korea. Methods Multiplex polymerase chain reaction was performed to detect the presence of tcdA and tcdB toxin genes. Antimicrobial susceptibility test was carried out by the disk-dilution metho...

conclusions the results of pcr-ribotyping indicate that no relationship exists between clinical and meat isolates. we therefore conclude that other sources than meat may function as a vector for ca-cdi. results the overall prevalence of c. difficile with two toxigenic genes including tcda and tcdb was estimated at 4.0%. c. difficile was detected in 2.8%, 2.1%, 3.6% and 6.2% of chopped beef, gro...
متن کاملPrevalence and characteristics of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolated from retail raw meats in China.
Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) causes diarrhea, hemorrhagic colitis, and hemolytic uremic syndrome in humans. Most human infections are attributed to consumption of STEC-contaminated foodstuffs of animal origin. In this study, we evaluated the prevalence of STEC from retail raw meats collected from two geographical regions in China. The results revealed that 166 out of 853 sample...
متن کاملPrevalence and Characterization of Clostridium difficile in Beef and Mutton Meats of Isfahan Region, Iran
BACKGROUND Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) is a frequent cause of nosocomial infections. During last few years, the mortality rate of C. difficile infection (CDI) increased in healthcare facilities. This organism has become a major public health concern in developed nations. Because of the increasing incidence of acquired-CDI (CA-CDI) and notable genetic overlap between C. difficile isolat...
متن کاملInvestigation of Antimicrobial Susceptibility in Clostridium Difficile Isolated From Older Adult Residents of a Nursing Home in Tehran
Background: CClostridium difficile is an anaerobic gram-positive bacterium currently recognized as the most common cause of nosocomial infectious diarrhea in the nursing home. The antibiotic susceptibility profiles are the basic step to successful treatment due to the antimicrobial resistance. This present study assessed the susceptibility profiles of C. difficile, previously isolated from Elde...
