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 ...

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.

Abstract Purpose Data on the reliability of point‐of‐care (POC) tests for the rapid diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infections (PJI) using synovial fluid (SF) D‐dimer (DD), interleukin 6 (IL‐6) and procalcitonin (PCT) are limited. This study aimed to address this issue by evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of POC tests for SF DD, IL‐6 and PCT in ...
