Phylogenetic analysis of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium genotypes associated with outbreaks or sporadic infections in Italy.

Microbial drug resistance (Larchmont, N.Y.) - 1 Jan 2007

Bonora Maria Grazia, Olioso Debora, Lo Cascio Giuliana, Fontana Roberta

Abstract excerpt

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were used to investigate the genetic relatedness of a total of 41 Enterococcus faecium isolates from different backgrounds (hospital outbreaks, n = 9; documented sporadic infections, n = 10; asymptomatic sporadic carriage of hospitalized patients, n = 9; healthy persons, n = 3; non-human sources, n = 10) over the period 1996-2004 in...
