Evolutionary trajectories of β-lactam resistance in <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> strains
2024-09-23
Abstract excerpt
Resistance to ampicillin and imipenem in Enterococcus faecalis is infrequent. However, the evolution of resistance can occur through prolonged antibiotic exposure during the treatment of chronic infections. In this study, we conducted a Long-Term Evolution Experiment (LTEE) using four genetically diverse strains of E. faecalis with varying susceptibilities to ampicillin and imipenem. Each strain was subjected to...
