A look at staphylococci from the one health perspective
Staphylococcus aureus and other staphylococcal species are resident and transient multihost colonizers as well as conditional pathogens. Especially S. aureus represents an excellent model bacterium for the “One Health” concept because of its dynamics at ...

Resistance to Glycopeptides in Enterococci [PDF]
The development of resistance to glycopeptides (vancomycin and teicoplanin) is one of the best examples of the alternation between success and failure that spans the history of the antibiotic era. The introduction of penicillin G was revolutionary. However, the emergence in the 1950s of clinical isolates of Staphylococcus aureus that were resistant to ...

Phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of enterocin producing enterococci against pathogenic bacteria [PDF]
The study investigated the antimicrobial activity of 13 enterococcal strains (E. faecalis -8, E. faecium-2, E. hirae-2, E. spp.-1) isolated from our traditional cheeses against pathogen microorganisms.

Targeting Enterococci with Antimicrobial Activity against Clostridium perfringens from Poultry
Necrotic enteritis (NE), caused by Clostridium perfringens, is an emerging issue in poultry farming. New approaches, other than antibiotics, are necessary to prevent NE development and the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Antimicrobial resistance of Enterococcus faecium isolated from the urinary system of dogs
The purpose of the present study was to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility of vancomycin-resistant and Enterococcus faecium strains isolated from urine samples of dogs. A total of 22 Enterococcus sp.

Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of enterococci isolated from goat’s milk
Enterococci are widespread, being part of the bacterial flora of humans and animals. The food chain can be therefore considered as the main route of transmission of antibiotic resistant bacteria between the animal and human populations.

Rapid identification of enterococci [PDF]
Enterococci were identified in 4 h with bile esculin agar and the Autobac system (General Diagnostics, Warner-Lambert Co., Morris Plains, N.J.), which was used to incubate and monitor salt broth for growth. Of 86 group D streptococci tested, 41 enterococci grew in salt broth and were bile esculin positive within 4 h; none of 45 group D nonenterococcal ...
