Abstrakt: | Clostridioides difficile is an urgent antimicrobial-resistant bacterium, causing mild to moderate and sometimes life-threatening disease. Commensal gut microbes are critical for providing colonization resistance against C difficile and can be leveraged as non-antibiotic alternative therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of C difficile infection.
