Emergence of unusual species of enterococci causing infections, South India.

BMC infectious diseases - 17 Mar 2005

Prakash Vittal P, Rao Sambasiva R, Parija Subash C

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Enterococci tend to be one of the leading causes of nosocomial infections, with E. faecalis and E. faecium accounting up to 90% of the clinical isolates. Nevertheless, the incidence of other species of enterococci from clinical sources shows an alarming increase with the properties of intrinsic resistance to several antibiotics including beta-lactams and glycopeptides. Thus proper identification of...
