Rapid Classification of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> Strains Using MALDI-TOF MS Peak-Based Assay in Comparison with PCR-Ribotyping

Rapid Classification of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> Strains Using MALDI-TOF MS Peak-Based Assay in Comparison with PCR-Ribotyping

Typing methods are needed for epidemiological tracking of new emerging and hypervirulent strains because of the growing incidence, severity and mortality of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> infections (CDI). The aim of this study was the evaluation of a typing Matrix-Assisted Desorption/I...
