Genetic characterization of high-level aminoglycoside-resistant Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium isolated from retail chicken meat
12 Jul 2019
Abstract excerpt
Retail chicken meat can play a role in the transfer of drug resistance to humans through the handling or ingestion of improperly cooked meat contaminated with resistant enterococci. In fact, high-level aminoglycoside-resistance (HLAR) in enterococci identified in human cases. Therefore, the prevalence and genetic characterization of HLAR in enterococci in retail chicken meat were investigated in this study. Of...
