Abstract excerpt

About 2.5 years after the first isolation of the VanA phenotype of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREM) in Poland, the first VREM strains with the VanB phenotype have emerged independently in two different Warsaw hospitals. In one of these the VREM strain was selected during the long-...
