A novel combination of multiple advanced molecular imaging techniques has led to the discovery of two molecular structures, which could provide a therapeutic target for C. diff infections. “The most ...

C. diff infections are triggered by two toxins the bacterium produces. Both toxins are difficult to block and prior investigations from the same clinical team have revealed the nature of how they ...

Researchers have obtained the crystal structure of a toxin from the bacterium Clostridium difficile ('C. diff') -- the leading cause of hospital-acquired diarrhea in the United States. They also found ...

NEW YORK, January 2, 2020 -- A newly published paper in PNAS details a research breakthrough that provides a promising starting point for scientists to create drugs that can cure C. diff-- a virulent ...

Clostridiodes difficile infection has become a leading cause of severe, sometimes fatal diarrheal illness, with the bacterium's toxins causing the damage. New work cements our knowledge of how C. diff ...

Singulex’s Clarity C. diff toxin A/B assay, a rapid C. diff toxin test, has made its commercial debut, the company announced. “The Clarity toxin A/B assay offers a new approach to testing for C. diff ...
