The emergence of Clostridioides difficile PCR ribotype 127 at a hospital in northeastern Taiwan

The emergence of Clostridioides difficile PCR ribotype 127 at a hospital in northeastern Taiwan

Background: Several studies have highlighted the incidence of Clostridioides difficile infections (CDIs) in Taiwan and certain ribotypes have been related to severe clinical diseases. A study was conducted to investigate the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) ribotypes and genetic relatedness of clinic...
