Genomic characterization of nine Clostridioides difficile strains isolated from Korean patients with Clostridioides difficile infection

Abstract Background Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is an infectious nosocomial disease caused by Clostridioides difficile, an opportunistic pathogen that occurs in the intestine after extensive antibiotic regimens. Results Nine C. difficile strains (CBA7201–CBA7209) were isolated from nine...
