Abstract
- ABSTRACTWe noted that some Clostridium difficileisolates are nonrecoverable after frozen storage and so used molecular typing analysis to characterize DNA from these strains. The recovery rate of C. difficilePCR ribotype 1 was statistically significantly greater than that of other strains. This observation has implications for C. difficileepidemiological studies.
