متن کاملEmergence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci in Australia: phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of isolates.
Enterococci with resistance to glycopeptides have recently emerged in Australia. We developed multiplex PCR assays for vanA, vanB, vanC1, and vanC2 or vanC3 in order to examine the genetic basis for vancomycin resistance in Australian isolates of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis (VRE). The predominant genotype from human clinical E. faecium isolates was vanB. The PCR va...
متن کاملVancomycin-resistant enterococci from animal sources in Korea.
Enterococci for which the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of vancomycin was >/=8 mg/l were isolated from meat, feces, and raw milk samples collected in Korea from March to November 2003. Among the 243 vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) that were identified the vanA vancomycin resistance gene was carried by 51 Enterococcus faecium and one Enterococcus sp., vanC1 was carried by 151 Ent...
متن کاملIsolation and Species Identification of Enterococci from Different Sources
Enterococcus play a dual role in human ecology by existing predominantly as a commensal in the alimentary canal and as an opportunistic pathogen. They are used as indicators of faecal contamination of drinking water. The presence of Enterococcus in the water distribution system channels present great challenge as this could pose serious health threat. Enterococcus can cause serious human infect...
متن کاملVancomycin-resistant enterococci.
Enterococci, a part of normal gut flora, are not particularly pathogenic organisms in humans. For example, they do not cause respiratory tract infections. The most frequent enterococcal infections are urinary tract infections. Despite their lack of pathogenicity, enterococci have emerged as significant nosocomial pathogens in the United States and elsewhere. Enterococci are formidable pathogens...
