Detection of clostridium difficile from an enhancement broth by gas-liquid chromatography
Gas-Liquid cl~romatograpl~y (GLC) was used to detect tlle presence of isocaproic acid produced by Clostridium difficile from 54 stool san~ples grown in cycloserine-cefoxitin brotli. Isocaproic acid was detected in 12 samples of which 5 were confirmed to be Clostridium difficile by culture and biocll...
