Characterization of E. faecalis and E. faecium strains involved in biliary stent occlusion

, 2004
Bacterial colonization plays an important role in biliary stent occlusion.The process is characterized by the formation of a microbial biofilm on the inner surfaces of the polymeric stent Gram-positive bacteria, particularly E. faecalis and E. faecium, are often found to be responsible of biliary stent colonization.

The Many Faces of E. Faecium: From Probiotics to Pathogenesis

Enterococcus faecium (E. faecium) represents a controversial species. E. faecium is ubiquitous in nature and adapts easily to diverse environmental conditions due to its ability to acquire and share new genetic elements. E.

Co-colonization of vanA and vanB Enterococcus faecium of clonal complex 17 in a patient with bacteremia due to vanA E. faecium

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 2014
A 53-year-old Vietnamese man with liver cirrhosis was transferred from a Vietnamese hospital to our tertiary care hospital in Korea in order to undergo a liver transplantation. Bacteremia due to vanA Enterococcus faecium was diagnosed, and stool surveillance cultures for vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) were positive for both vanA and vanB E ...

Misidentification of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium as E. avium

Clinical Microbiology Newsletter, 1998
sis (5). We also applied CFA analysis, but the decision to assign our isolate to the genus Aureobacterium was based on the results of simple and commonly available tests. Within the genus Aureobacterium, seven species have been described: A. barkeri, A. esteroaromaticum, A. flavescens, A. liquefaciens, A. saperdae, A. terregens, and A. testaceum (1,3,4)

Horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance from Enterococcus faecium of fermented meat origin to clinical isolates of E. faecium and Enterococcus faecalis

International Journal of Food Microbiology, 2015
Enterococcus species are part of the normal intestinal flora of a large number of mammals including humans and consequently, they can be used as indicators of faecal contamination in food and water for human consumption. Their presence in large numbers in foods may indicate a lapse in sanitation and their ability to serve as a genetic reservoir of ...

Phenotypic characteristics of Enterococcus faecium variants confirmed by intergenic ribosomal polymerase chain reaction and E. faecium polymerase chain reaction

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1999
Enterococcus faecium has recently emerged as a serious nosocomial pathogen. The emergence of multiple antimicrobial agent-resistant E. faecium has been remarkable; with its strains it is one of the most phenotypically heterogeneous of all enterococcal species.

Diverse Antimicrobial Killing by Enterococcus faecium E 50-52 Bacteriocin

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2008
An effective bacteriocin was identified and characterized. Lactic acid bacteria were screened against Campylobacter jejuni. One bacteriocin producer, Enterococcus faecium (NRRL B-30746), was studied. The isolate was grown, and the bacteriocin was purified to single-band homogeneity.

Virulence determinants and pathogenicity in Enterococcus faecalis and E. faecium

Magna Scientia Advanced Research and Reviews
Enterococci are Gram-positive bacteria that inhabit the gastrointestinal tract of many organisms, including humans. These bacteria can easily adapt to their surrounding environment, even under stress conditions that can be lethal to other microorganisms.
