Toxigenic <em>C. difficile</em> has been investigated in adult diarrheal feces, regardless of the clinical request. Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), toxin A (TcdA) and toxin B (TcdB) have been assessed by immunoassay and the gene encoding toxin B (tcdB) and the binary toxin (cdtA) by PCR. The toxigenic strains recovered by toxigenic culture were typed by PCR-Ribotyping and subtyped by MLVA (multilocus-variable number tandem DNA repeat analysis).
