Enterococci have a variety of intrinsic antibiotic resistances, and also they can acquire new antibiotic resistance determinants including mutated ligase genes such as VanA or VanB. The increased prevalence and dissemination of multidrug-resistant Enterococci (i.e., Vancomycin resistant Enterococci: VRE) worldwide have resulted in a major decrease in ...

Infection Control, 1986
In 1899, Thiercilin used the term “enterococcus” to describe microscopic organisms seen in pairs or short chains in feces. Later (in the 1930s) the name was used in a more restrictive sense for streptococci that had the hardy capacity to survive under extreme conditions.Enterococci belong to a group D family of streptococci, as characterized by ...

This chapter discloses the emergence of enterococci as an important hospital-acquired or nosocomial pathogen since the early 1970s. It looks at the statistics from the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance System (NNISS) and subsequent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) programs (National Healthcare Safety Network), which places ...

1994
Bacteriocin-like antagonism displayed by enterococci was first reported by Kjems (1955). Since then, a wide number of bacteriocins have been described and classified in this group (Brock et al., 1963; Pleceas, 1970; Tzannetis et al., 1970; Kekessy & Piguet, 1971; Kramer & Brandis, 1975; Brandis, 1978).

Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis Bacteremia: Acquisition and Outcome
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1995The incidence of enterococcal bacteremia due to Enterococcus faecium is increasing. To understand the clinical significance of E. faecium bacteremia, we compared 16 patients who were bacteremic due to E. faecium to 56 patients who were bacteremic due to Enterococcus faecalis. E. faecium bacteremia developed most frequently in severely ill patients with

Hemagglutination properties of Enterococcus
Current Microbiology, 1995In total, 86 enterococcal strains including representatives of most of the described species were tested for the ability to agglutinate human, sheep, and rabbit erythrocytes. Five strains did not react with any of the erythrocytes tested, and 81 (94.2%) strains agglutinated only rabbit erythrocytes. The hemagglutination titers ranged from 2 to 64. Loss

Enterococcus infections in foals
The Veterinary Journal, 2019Enterococci have been increasing in prevalence in foal sepsis over the past three decades. There are no published studies in the peer-reviewed literature documenting common sites of infection, antimicrobial susceptibility, or outcome specifically associated with enterococcal infections in foals.

Enterococcus faecium in hospitals
European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 1997Most of the characteristics that have ensured the success of enterococci as nosocomial pathogens were described early in this century. Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis, the enterococci most frequently isolated from clinical material, differ fundamentally.
