Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the distribution and genetic characteristics of linezolid-resistant enterococci. METHODS: Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium strains were isolated from pigs, equipment, grounds, and employees of 19 Korean swine farms in 2017. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was then performed and linezolid resistance genes were detected via PCR. For genetic epidemiological...
