Abstract:
Commercial probiotic strains inhibited C. difficile, and other Clostridium cultures with zones 14.2-78.9 mm. The highest inhibition was observed with commercial culture on C. difficile ATCC 700057. Organic acids were the leading cause of inhibition. Probiotic cultures may be used as a support culture or through fermented foods for treatment.
