Thermal inactivation of Enterococcus faecium [PDF]
Data for thermal inactivation of working suspension of Enterococcus faecium in model solutions were acquired and used to develop a mathematical model for thermal inactivation of the bacterium. The model is valid within the water activity range 0.97 to 0.99; pH range 6.0 to 7.6; temperature range 60°C to 65°C, and was determined for the microorganism ...

Modeling the growth of Enterococcus faecium in bologna sausage [PDF]
A study to set up mathematical models which allow the prediction of Enterococcus faecium growth in bologna sausage (mortadella) was carried out. Growth curves were obtained at different temperatures (5, 6, 12, 15, 25, 32, 35, 37, 42, 46, 50, 52, and 55 degrees C).

Enterococcus faecium Bacteremia [PDF]
Enterococcus faecium has received increased attention, primarily due to the emergence of vancomycin resistance. The purpose of this investigation was to study the epidemiological characteristics of vancomycin-resistant E faecium (VRE) bacteremia and to determine the clinical impact of vancomycin resistance on the outcome of patients with this infection.

Tetracycline resistance heterogeneity in Enterococcus faecium
The tetracycline (Tet) determinants, which encode resistance either to tetracyclines without minocycline (Tcr) or to tetracyclines including minocycline (Tcr-Mnr), of 30 wild-type clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecium were identified and localized.

Daptomycin for highly resistant Enterococcus faecium infection [PDF]
We report a case series of 11 patients with severe E. faeciuminfections treated with daptomycin. All strains were resistant to ampicillin (MIC >8 mg/l), but susceptible to vancomycin. Seven out of 11 strains were also highly resistant to gentamicin (MIC >500 mg/l).
