Prevalence of vancomycin-variable Enterococcus faecium (VVE) among vanA-positive sterile site isolates and patient factors associated with VVE bacteremia. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Vancomycin-variable enterococci (VVE) are vanA-positive, vancomycin-susceptible enterococci with the ability to revert to a vancomycin-resistant phenotype on exposure to vancomycin.

Comparative proteomic map among vanA-containing Enterococcus isolated from yellow-legged gulls [PDF]

, 2012
The increase of VRE, therefore, represents an urgent threat for patient care and creates a reservoir of mobile resistance genes for other, more virulent pathogens.

Distribution of Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Enterococcus spp. Isolated from Mastitis Bovine Milk

Acta Veterinaria, 2016
In this study, determination of enterococcus species that were isolated from mastitic milk samples, investigation of their susceptibilities to antibiotics and identification of the existence of resistance genes in resistant strains were conducted.

Detection of both vanA & vanB genes in vanA phenotypes of Enterococci by Taq Man RT-PCR [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2015
Twenty seven isolates of vancomycin resistant Enterococci based on the disk diffusion and E- test have been screened; being found eight (0.3%) clinical isolates of vanA & vanB through Taq Man Real Time PCR assay. This study shows the presence of both vanA & vanB genotypes in vanA phenotypes clinical isolates in the three hospitals in Iran.

Phenotypic and Genotypic Traits of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci from Healthy Food-Producing Animals

Microorganisms, 2020
Food-producing animals may be a reservoir of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), potentially posing a threat to animal and public health. The aims of this study were to estimate the faecal carriage of VRE among healthy cattle (n = 362), pigs (n = 350)

Holocene vegetation dynamics of Grande Terre (Kerguelen Islands) inferred from sedimentary ancient DNA

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While the Antarctic region has experienced significant climatic changes over the Holocene, few high‐resolution records have examined their effects on the local biota. In order to understand past ecological shifts and forecast future changes, it is important to obtain high‐resolution palaeoecological records from this region.

Molecular characterization of enterococci harboring genotype and phenotype incongruence related to glycopeptide resistance isolated in Brazilian hospitals

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2008
Three Enterococcus faecalis and one Enterococcus faecium strains were characterized by plasmid profile, pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and determination of antimicrobial minimal inhibitory concentrations. VanA elements were characterized by Long

Online Rebate Strategy for a Dual‐Channel Supply Chain

Naval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As online shopping channels become ubiquitous, consumers are faced with a vast number of digital purchasing options. To attract more consumers, many e‐shops utilize cashback websites (CWs) to provide online rebates. This study examines a dual‐channel supply chain, in which the manufacturer sells products through both its own online store and a
