Comparison of Two Commercial Molecular Assays to a Laboratory-Developed Molecular Assay for Diagnosis of Clostridium difficile Infection

We compared two commercial PCR assays, the Prodesse ProGastro CD assay and the BD GeneOhm Cdiff assay, with a laboratory-developed Clostridium difficile toxin PCR assay with previously established performance characteristics. Results of all methods were in agreement for 333 (96%) of 346 stool specim...
