  • Therapeutic clostridium difficile antibody compositions
    Publication number: 20110020356
    Abstract: The C. difficile proteins Cwp84, FliC and FliD, known to have conserved peptide sequences, were separately injected into female chickens, and the antibody rich egg yolks harvested. The antibody compositions were then titered by ELISA and western immunoblotting. Anti-FliD IgY, anti-Cwp84 IgY, and an equititer cocktail of the three IgY antibodies was administered to hamsters infected with a C. difficile strain and found effective as potential treatments.
