Kaplan-Meier survival curves of hamsters infected with spores of strains from different STs within the C. difficile Clade 2. Syrian Golden hamsters previously treated with clindamycin were orally inoculated with spores from the indicated strains. Hamsters were monitored at 12 h intervals for signs of C. difficile infection, and the numbers of deceased animals were recorded. C. difficile isolates obtained from fecal pellets were typed to confirm the inoculated strain. *,#p < 0.05 Mantel-Cox test
