Semiquantitative analysis of clinical heat stress in Clostridium difficile strain 630 using a GeLC/MS workflow with emPAI quantitation.

Clostridium difficile is considered to be the most frequent cause of infectious bacterial diarrhoea in hospitals worldwide yet its adaptive ability remains relatively uncharacterised. Here, we used GeLC/MS and the exponentially modified protein abundance index (emPAI) calculation to determine proteo...
