Clostridium difficile is a gram-positive anaerobe. Infection with C. difficile causes severe diarrhea and can be fatal if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. C. difficile infection is induced in patients by long-term treatment with antibiotics and is commonly found in hospital environment. It is easily transmitted through contact with infected fecal matter. Accurate testing for toxins proved to be difficult due to assays having low sensitivity.
