TL;DR: WGS-based AST using ResFinder 4.0 provides in silico antibiograms as reliable as those obtained by phenotypic AST at least for the bacterial species/antimicrobial agents of major public health relevance considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiplex PCR Assay for Simultaneous Detection of Nine Clinically Relevant Antibiotic Resistance Genes in Staphylococcus aureus
TL;DR: The multiplex PCR assay offers a rapid, simple, and accurate identification of antibiotics resistance profiles and could be used in clinical diagnosis as well as for the surveillance of the spread of antibiotic resistance determinants in epidemiological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Several factors are known to promote VRE colonisation and transmission; however, despite having populations with similar predispositions and preconditions, rates of VRE vary all over Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Lactobacillus, Pediococcus and Lactococcus human isolates and cultures intended for probiotic or nutritional use
Ingo Klare,Carola Konstabel,Guido Werner,Geert Huys,Vanessa Vankerckhoven,Vanessa Vankerckhoven,Gunnar Kahlmeter,Bianca Hildebrandt,Sibylle Müller-Bertling,Wolfgang Witte,Herman Goossens,Herman Goossens +11 more
TL;DR: Finding of acquired resistance genes in isolates intended for probiotic or nutritional use highlights the importance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing in documenting the safety of commercial LAB.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mobile genetic elements and their contribution to the emergence of antimicrobial resistant Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium.
Kristin Hegstad,Kristin Hegstad,Theresa Mikalsen,Teresa M. Coque,Guido Werner,Arnfinn Sundsfjord,Arnfinn Sundsfjord +6 more
TL;DR: This review focuses on recent developments in the detection of MGEs and their contribution to the spread of antimicrobial resistance in clinically relevant enterococci.
