      Background: Enterococcus faecalis is a multifaceted microorganism known to act as a beneficial intestinal commensal bacterium. It is also a dreaded nosocomial pathogen causing life-threatening infections in hospitalised patients. Isolates of a distinct MLST type ST40 represent the most frequent strain type of this species, distributed worldwide and originating from various sources (animal, human, ...

    • Update on prevalence and mechanisms of resistance to linezolid, tigecycline and daptomycin in enterococci in Europe: towards a common nomenclature 

      Bender, Jennifer; Cattoir, Vincent; Hegstad, Kristin; Sadowy, Eva; Coque, Teresa M.; Westh, Henrik; Hammerum, Anette M.; Schaffer, Kirsten; Burns, Karen; Murchan, Stephen; Novais, Carla; Freitas, Ana R.; Peixe, Luísa; Del Grosso, Maria; Pantosti, Annalisa; Werner, Guido (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-11-02)
      Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) are important nosocomial pathogens. Invasive VRE infections are difficult to treat since common therapeutic options including ampicillin and glycopeptides often fail. In vitro, most VRE remain susceptible to last-resort antibiotics such as linezolid, tigecycline and daptomycin. However, neither tigecycline nor linezolid act in a bactericidal manner, and ...
