Prevalence of binary-toxin genes (cdtA and cdtB) among clinical strains of Clostridium difficile isolated from diarrheal patients in Iran
AIM: In this study we investigated the prevalence of binary toxin genes, cdtA and cdtB, in clinical isolates of C. difficile from hospitalized patients with diarrhea. BACKGROUND: C. difficile binary toxin (CDT) is an action-specific ADP-ribosyltransferase that is produced by some strains of C. diffi...
