RE: Trehalose, a common food additive, may have fueled worldwide Clostridium difficile outbreaks
Now I have to worry when I'm drinking beer? Well hopefully the alcohol kills any C. diff before it has a chance to grow.
Awesome that you work with brewing yeast. Good luck building a better beer.
C. diff can live in alcoholic beverages and be a contaminant in beer production (I mean, you'd hope not), but I was more thinking about the effects of C. diff already in the gut feeding on the trehalose that the brewing yeast is carrying with it. Hopefully not!
