Journal ArticleDOI
Species distribution and antibiotic resistance patterns of enterococci isolated from food of animal origin in Germany.
TL;DR: Only one E. faecium strain was resistant to penicillin, while all strains were sensitive to the glycopeptide antibiotics, vancomycin and teicoplanin, which are causes for concern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species identification and detection of vancomycin resistance genes in enterococci of animal origin by multiplex PCR.
TL;DR: The multiplex PCR assay presented here, with its optimised parameters, is suitable for routine use and because of time and material saving, it is an alternative and rapid method in comparison to conventional tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hazard potential from antibiotic-resistant commensals like Enterococci.
Journal Article
Nachweis von Vancomycin-Resistenzgenen bei Enterokokken-Feldstämmen tierischer Herkunft mittels Multiplex-PCR
TL;DR: The multiplex PCR is characterised by its time-and material saving advantages and is therefore recommended for the routine use for the detection of vancomycin genes in enterococcal strains and the clarification of negative results single-PCR examinations should be carried out.
