Identification of 2CS-CHX <sup>T</sup> operon signature of chlorhexidine tolerance among <i>Enterococcus faecium</i>

2019-07-17

Abstract excerpt

Chlorhexidine (CHX) is a broad-spectrum antiseptic widely used in community and clinical contexts for many years, recently acquiring higher relevance in nosocomial infections control worldwide. Despite of this, CHX tolerance has been poorly understood among Enterococcus faecium , one of the leading agents causing nosocomial infections. This study provides new phenotypic and molecular data for a better identificat...
