Commercial probiotic strains inhibited C. difficile, and other Clostridium cultures with zones 14.2–78.9 mm. The highest inhibition was observed with commercial culture on C. difficile ATCC 700057. Organic acids were the leading cause of inhibition. Probiotic cultures may be used as a support culture or through fermented foods for treatment.
