Development of a One-Step Multiplex PCR Assay for Differential Detection of Four species (Enterobacter cloacae, Enterobacter hormaechei, Enterobacter roggenkampii, and Enterobacter kobei) Belonging to Enterobacter cloacae Complex With Clinical Significance [PDF]
Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) is composed of multiple species and the taxonomic status is consecutively updated. In last decades ECC is frequently associated with multidrug resistance and become an important nosocomial pathogen. Currently, rapid and

Genomic diversity within the Enterobacter cloacae complex. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Isolates of the Enterobacter cloacae complex have been increasingly isolated as nosocomial pathogens, but phenotypic identification of the E. cloacae complex is unreliable and irreproducible.

Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy for Typing of Clinical Enterobacter cloacae Complex Isolates [PDF]
Members of the Enterobacter (E.) cloacae complex have emerged as important pathogens frequently encountered in nosocomial infections. Several outbreaks with E. cloacae complex have been reported in recent years, especially in neonatal units.

Molecular Characterization of IMP-1-Producing Enterobacter cloacae Complex Isolates in Tokyo [PDF]
ABSTRACT Although KPC enzymes are most common among carbapenemases produced by Enterobacter cloacae complex globally, the epidemiology varies from one country to another. While previous studies have suggested that IMP enzymes are most common in Japan, detailed analysis has been scarce thus far.
