Characterization of Clostridioides difficile Isolates Available through the CDC & FDA Antibiotic Resistance Isolate Bank.

Thirty Clostridioides difficile isolates collected in 2016 through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Emerging Infections Program were selected for reference antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing. Here, we present the genetic characteristics of these isolates and announce their availability in the CDC & FDA Antibiotic Resistance Isolate Bank.
