Emergence of vancomycin-resistant enterococci in Australia: phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of isolates.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Aug 1998

Bell J M, Paton J C, Turnidge J

Abstract excerpt

Enterococci with resistance to glycopeptides have recently emerged in Australia. We developed multiplex PCR assays for vanA, vanB, vanC1, and vanC2 or vanC3 in order to examine the genetic basis for vancomycin resistance in Australian isolates of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and E. faecalis (VRE). The predominant genotype from human clinical E. faecium isolates was vanB. The PCR van genotype was...
