The antimicrobial and bile acid mediated control of Clostridium difficile infection

Clostridium difficile is an anaerobic, Gram-positive, endospore forming bacillus and is the leading cause of nosocomial infection. Symptoms range from mild diarrhoea to the potentially fatal intestinal complications pseudomembranous colitis and toxic megacolon. The prerequisite for C. difficile infe...
