Genomic Insights Into the Pathogenicity of a Novel Biofilm-Forming Enterococcus sp. Bacteria (Enterococcus lacertideformus) Identified in Reptiles. [PDF]
Whole genome analysis of a novel species of enterococci, Enterococcus lacertideformus, causing multi-systemic and invariably fatal disease in critically endangered Christmas Island reptiles was undertaken to determine the genetic elements and potential mechanisms conferring its pathogenic nature, biofilm-forming capabilities, immune recognition ...

Enumeration of Enterococcus sp. using a modified mE method [PDF]
A modified mE medium (mEI) containing the chromogenic substrate indoxyl-beta-D-glucoside to detect beta-D-glucosidase activity was evaluated with respect to specificity and recovery of enterococci from environmental waters. Extending incubation from 24 to 48 h improved enterococci recovery but 77% of the colonies classified as non-target were confirmed

Enterococcus raffinosus sp. nov., Enterococcus solitarius sp. nov. and Enterococcus pseudoavium sp. nov. [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleic acid base composition, deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization, and biochemical studies were performed on some enterococci from clinical sources of uncertain taxonomic position. Our results indicate that 6 human strains, a single clinical isolate and a strain from bovine mastitis are genetically distinct from each ...

Enterococcus silesiacus sp. nov. and Enterococcus termitis sp. nov. [PDF]
Three enterococci constituted two aberrant branches after numerical analysis of (GTG)5-PCR fingerprints: analogous patterns were found for two water isolates, strains W213 and W442T, and a separate position was found for an isolate from the gut of a termite, strain LMG 8895T.

Enterococcus mundtii sp. nov. [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleic acid base composition, deoxyribonucleic acid-deoxyribonucleic acid hybridization, and biochemical studies were performed on some problematic enterococci of unknown taxonomic position. Our results indicate that some motile, nonpigmented strains are members of Enterococcus gallinarum, whereas motile, yellow-pigmented strains belong to ...

Enterococcus haemoperoxidus sp. nov. and Enterococcus moraviensis sp. nov., isolated from water. [PDF]
A polyphasic taxonomic approach was used to study atypical enterococci isolated from surface waters. All strains were characterized by physiological and biochemical tests as well as by genotyping. The results of biochemical tests and tRNA intergenic length polymorphism analysis (tDNA-PCR) divided all studied strains uniformly into two groups.

Enterococcus saccharominimus sp. nov., from dairy products [PDF]
Four isolates, which were obtained from Belgian, Moroccan and Romanian dairy products, constituted a homogeneous but unidentified taxon after screening with whole-cell protein fingerprinting. Complete 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis classified representative strains in the genus Enterococcus.

Enterococcus seriolicida sp. nov., a Fish Pathogen [PDF]
The properties and taxonomic position of bacterial strains isolated from diseased specimens of cultured yellowtail and eels were examined. The isolates were gram-positive, short-chain-forming, catalase-negative, facultatively anaerobic cocci. Growth at 10 and 45 degrees C in 6.5% NaCl (pH 9.6) with 40% bile and in 0.1% methylene blue-milk were both ...

Enterococcus porcinus sp. nov. and Enterococcus ratti sp. nov., associated with enteric disorders in animals. [PDF]
Recent insights have been brought to the taxonomy of the genus Enterococcus by studies applying whole-cell protein analysis and DNA-DNA reassociation experiments, in addition to conventional physiological tests. Using these techniques, a group of 10 strains resembling the physiological group III of enterococcal species was characterized.
