Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium with vanA gene isolated for the first time from wildlife in Slovakia.

Veterinary microbiology - 15 Oct 2016

Oravcova Veronika, Hadelova Daniela, Literak Ivan

Abstract excerpt

Corvids have been identified as an important vector of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) in several European countries. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of VRE in wildlife in Slovakia and to characterize vanA-carrying VRE. At the beginning of 2013, we collected 287 fecal samples of common raven (Corvus corax) in Petrovce and 99 fecal samples of rooks (Corvus frugilegus) in Kosice. Samples...
