- The primary bile acid profile in #Infants predominantly consists of #Cholic acid (CA) and chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), with a greater proportion of CA and its conjugates than CDCA and its conjugates - [1.2] [#Clostridium difficile associated disease] [#Clostridioides difficile] [#Tauro-cholic acid]
- TCA acts as a germinant for C. difficile spores, whereas chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA) can inhibit germination and growth
