Diversity of VanA glycopeptide resistance elements in enterococci from humans and nonhuman sources.

Antimicrobial agents and chemotherapy - 1 Mar 1998

Woodford N, Adebiyi A M, Palepou M F, Cookson B D

Abstract excerpt

Elements mediating VanA glycopeptide resistance in 106 diverse enterococci from humans and nonhuman sources were compared with the prototype VanA transposon, Tn1546, in Enterococcus faecium BM4147. The isolates included 64 from individual patients at 15 hospitals in the United Kingdom (isolated between 1987 and 1996) and 42 from nonhuman sources in the United Kingdom (27 from raw meat, 7 from animal feces, and 8...
