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 ...

Phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase systems in Enterococcus faecalis.
A wild-type strain of Enterococcus faecalis and its mutants resistant to 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) were examined for the presence of phosphoenolpyruvate:carbohydrate phosphotransferase systems (PTSs) with 12 carbohydrates, which were utilized by the organism, as the substrates. The wild-type strain possessed a constitutive mannose-PTS, which was reactive
