Antibacterial resistance of Enterococcus spp. isolated from commercial poultry of the Russian Federation farms in 2013–2016, and identification of vancomycin resistance genes

Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2017
Rationale: Enterococci are the leading cause of a number of nosocomial and community-acquired human diseases. In the last decade, these pathogens are becoming resistant to antibacterials, including vancomycin.

Nosocomial Infection with Vancomycin-dependent Enterococci

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We report three patients infected with unique strains of vancomycin-dependent enterococci. Two were first infected by genetically identical strains of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE).

PREVALENCE OF LINEZOLID-RESISTANT VANCOMYCIN-RESISTANT ENTEROCOCCUS SPECIES (LRVRE) IN CLINICAL ISOLATES FROM TERTIARY CARE HOSPITAL OF NORTH INDIA – A REAL THREAT

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2023
Intro: Linezolid, an oxazolidinone antibiotic, was introduced early in 2000 as a new therapeutic option against gram positive cocci including vancomycin resistant enterococci (VRE).

Vancomycin‐Resistant Enterococci in Canada Revisited [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2000
B Lynn Johnston MD FRCPC, John M Conly MD FRCPC In the July/August 1997 issue of the The Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases, the Adult Infectious Disease Notes was entitled “The emerging epidemiology of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in Canada”(1). At that time, it was acknowledged that VRE’s Canadian epidemiology was not fully elucidated.

Iterative Chemical Engineering of Vancomycin Leads to Novel Vancomycin Analogs With a High in Vitro Therapeutic Index

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic that inhibits transpeptidation during cell wall synthesis by binding to the D-Ala-D-Ala termini of lipid II. For long, it has been used as a last resort antibiotic.

Effect of Garlic on Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1999
There is great concern about the worldwide increase in antibiotic resistance, especially of gram-positive bacteria such as vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). As garlic, especially the thiosulfinate allicin, has been known for its antibacterial activity against facultative aerobic bacteria (2), the antibacterial effect of garlic alone and in ...
