Characterization of an Enterococcus faecium small-colony variant isolated from blood culture.

International journal of medical microbiology : IJMM - 1 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Small-colony variants (SCVs) of bacteria are slow-growing subpopulations which can cause latent or recurrent infections due to better intracellular survival compared to their wild-type counterparts. Atypical colony morphology and altered biochemical profile may lead to failure in identification of SCV strains. We here report for the first time the isolation of an Enterococcus faecium SCV phenotype. The case of a...
