Pseudomembranous colitis, a relatively uncommon and sometimes severe diarrheal disease, recently has been linked to the administration of a number of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The cause has now been identified as a spore-forming clostridial species not previously recognized as a human pathogen. Since the organism is sensitive to moset commonly used antibiotics, its spores may be the key to the disease.
伪膜性结肠炎是一种相对罕见且有时较为严重的腹泻疾病，最近已被证实与多种广谱抗生素的使用有关。其病因现已确定为一种以前未被视为人类病原体的产芽孢梭菌。由于该生物体对大多数常用抗生素敏感，其芽孢可能是导致该病的关键因素。
