Enterococcus faecalis is a familiar urinary tract infection (UTI) pathogen of bacteria origin. This uropathogen is becoming more resistant to currently prescribed antimicrobials. Use of water from hostel drains and wastewater treatment plants (WTP) in the irrigation of vegetable fa...
The occurrence and antibiotic resistance of enterococci, especially Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium, in milk, beef, and chicken in Gaborone, Botswana, were studied. Enterococci were isolated from these sources with the use of bile esculin agar and identified with API 20 Strep kits. An...
Enterococcus faecium has become an important microorganism in nosocomial infections with great ability to acquire antibiotic resistance. However, little is known about their presence on the oral cavity. Therefore, our objective was to verify the presence of E. faecium and E. faecalis in endodontic in...
Enterococcus faecalis is one of the most common causes of recurrent urinary tract infection (RUTI), yet enterococcal pathogenesis is poorly understood. Our aims were to identify the prevalence of enterococci in RUTI patients and characterize the enterococcal response to nitrofurantoin and trimethoprim-sulf...
We observed a robust effect of CRISPR-Cas on in vivo but not in vitro dissemination of antibiotic resistance plasmids in the native mammalian intestinal colonizer Enterococcus faecalis. We conclude that standard in vitro experiments currently do not appropriately model the in vivo conditions where ...
Its major value is that it provides a therapeutic option for infections caused by vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium, VISA or VRSA. Unfortunately there are already reports of VRE and MRSA resistant to quinupristin/dalfopristin since its licensure in 1999[10, 11]. Linezolid (Zyvox) is the ...

The expression of hemolytic activity was greater for Enterococcus faecium isolates, while the expression of gelatinase and antibiotic resistance was greater for Enterococcus faecalis . Sequencing showed a wide diversity in the isolates of E. faecalis and E. faecium . 展开 关键词: E. faecalis E. ...

coli, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aspergillus flavus, and Candida albicans (Jayaseelan et al. 2012). Several investigations have found that ZnO-NPs are nontoxic to human cells, which has necessitated their use as antibacterial agents, lethal to microbes, and have good ...
