A Genomic Snapshot of <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> within Public Hospital Environments in South Africa

2022-03-10

Abstract excerpt

Enterococci are among the most common opportunistic hospital pathogens. This study used whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and bioinformatics to determine the antibiotic resistome, genetic support, clones and phylogenetic relationship of Enterococcus faecalis isolated from hospital environments in South Africa. Isolates were recovered from 11 frequently touched sites by patients and healthcare workers in different ward...
