[0220] Example 3: Detection of clinical stool samples by real-time fluorescent PCR method

[0221] 1. Specimen source

[0222] Among the 48 cases of feces collected from Hubei Cancer Hospital, the fecal DNA of 8 specimens whose Clostridium difficile was confirmed to be isolated by the CCFA selective culture method was used in this example. The specific process of the CCFA selective culture method is as follows: anal swab specimens were mixed with 98% ethanol in equal volumes for 30 minutes to 1 hour, and 0.1 mL of the mixed solution was inoculated on cycloserine cefoxitin mannitol agar medium, and the medium was placed at 35°C After 24 hours of anaerobic culture, the frozen stool was thawed, and then suspended in 9 times the volume of anaerobic transport medium. For the colonies detected on the medium, C. difficile was identified from traits and Gram stainability.

Abstract

The invention discloses a composition, kit and method for detecting high-virulence bacterial strains and / or toxin type of clostridium difficile. The composition and kit comprise primers, probes and standard substances, wherein the nucleotide sequence of the primers is as shown in SEQ ID NO. 1-47; the high-virulence bacterial strains and / or toxin type of clostridium difficile can be detected through fluorogenic quantitative PCR by adopting the composition or kit. According to the invention, the sensitivity and specificity are high; the toxin type and virulence of clostridium difficile can be accurately judged through detecting tcdC gene mutation or deletion and coordinating with virulence gene detection, including tcd A / B and binary virulence gene cdt A / B, of clostridium difficile.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of rapid molecular diagnosis of antibiotic-resistant Clostridium difficile gene, and specifically relates to a composition, a kit and a method for detecting high-virulence strains and / or toxin types of Clostridium difficile. Background technique [0002] Clostridium difficile (Clostridium difficile, CD) is a Gram-positive strict anaerobic bacillus with a spore structure, and is recognized worldwide as the most important pathogenic microorganism in nosocomial infections and antibiotic-induced diarrhea. It can cause antibiotic-associated diarrhea, colitis, fatal pseudomembranous colitis, etc. In 2013, Clostridium difficile was listed by the US Department of Health as the first of the three major pathogens of antibiotic-related drug-resistant bacteria, and the threat level was designated as "most urgent". my country has incorporated the research on Clostridium difficile into the National Major Science and Technology Pro...
