Natural Clostridioides difficile Toxin Immunization in Colonized Infants.

Background: Clostridioides (Clostridium) difficile colonization is common among infants. Serological sequelae of infant C. difficile colonization are poorly understood.

Clostridium difficile Whole Genome Sequencing Reveals Limited Transmission Among Symptomatic Children: A Single-Center Analysis.

Background: Although pediatric Clostridium difficile infections (CDIs) are increasing, C. difficile transmission patterns among children are poorly understood.

Methods: We performed whole genome sequencing (WGS) on C.

Complete Genome Sequence of Epidemic Strain DH/NAP11/106/ST-42, Isolated from Stool from a Pediatric Patient with Diarrhea.

We report here the complete genome sequence of strain DH/NAP11/106/ST-42, which is now the most common strain causing infection among U.S. adults.
