We reviewed many posters at the recent #ESCMIDGlobal Congress. One that caught our eye, used our POLYWIPE™ to collect samples to measure Clostridium Difficile contamination in Australian retail vegetables and households, see below for the full poster.
Thanks to The University of Western Australia, Dierdre Collins and the research team for their incredible work!

The need for safe specimen transportation and testing in areas with limited biological containment facilities
Community-associated Clostridium difficile infection (CA-CDI) has been rising in Australia for several years. Using MWE’s POLYWIPE™, researchers from The University of Western Australia were able to determine the prevalence and molecular types of C. difficile present on reatil vegetables and households in Queensland and Western Australia
The recent reports of invasive Group A Streptococcal infections in children have drawn attention to this relatively common pathogen. MWE has a range of products that can help with diagnosis.
