Enterococci in the Environment [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2012
SUMMARY Enterococci are common, commensal members of gut communities in mammals and birds, yet they are also opportunistic pathogens that cause millions of human and animal infections annually. Because they are shed in human and animal feces, are readily culturable, and predict human health risks from exposure to polluted ...

Virulence of enterococci [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Microbiology Reviews, 1994
Enterococci are commensal organisms well suited to survival in intestinal and vaginal tracts and the oral cavity. However, as for most bacteria described as causing human disease, enterococci also possess properties that can be ascribed roles in pathogenesis.

Pathogenicity of Enterococci [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2019
ABSTRACT Enterococci are unusually well adapted for survival and persistence in a variety of adverse environments, including on inanimate surfaces in the hospital environment and at sites of infection. This intrinsic ruggedness undoubtedly played a role in providing opportunities for enterococci to interact with other overtly drug-resistant ...

Enterococci in Insects [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology, 1972
Enterococci were obtained from 213 of 403 insects cultured during a 14-month period, in numbers from 10 3 to 3 10 7 /g of insect. Insects were taken only from nonurban, wild, and cultivated fields and woods.

The epidemiology of enterococci [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1990
The enterococci are emerging as a significant cause of nosocomial infections, accounting for approximately 10% of hospital acquired infections. They are found as normal inhabitants of the human gastrointestinal tract, but may also colonize the oropharynx, vagina, perineal region and soft tissue wounds of asymptomatic patients.
