Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) showing Gram-positive Clostridium difficile bacteria. These C. difficile organisms were cultured from a stool sample obtained during an outbreak of gastrointestinal illness, and extracted using a .1µm filter. C. difficile causes diarrhea, and more serious intestinal conditions such as colitis.
