- Background: Clostridium difficile; often referred to as C. diff; is an anaerobic; Gram-positive bacterium that can cause a range of gastrointestinal issues in humans. Infections with C. difficile are primarily associated with healthcare settings such as hospitals and long-term care facilities where patients come into contact with infected individuals or contaminated surfaces1. C. diff infections (CDIs) typically occur following the disruption of the normal gut microbiota; often due to antibiotics; which allow the bacteria to proliferate and produce toxins2. Glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) is an enzyme produced by C. difficile which is responsible for conversion of glutamate to alpha-ketoglutarate. GDH detection in the stool is often used as a rapid screening tool to suggest possible presence of C. diff. Further testing for the bacterial toxins is typically performed upon a positive GDH test.
