A novel resistance reversion mechanism in a vancomycin-variable <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> strain

2023-04-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> To investigate an outbreak of Enterococcus faecium in a hospital haematology ward and uncover the mechanism of a vancomycin resistance phenotype-genotype disparity in an isolate from this outbreak. <h4>Methods</h4> Whole genome shotgun sequencing was used for the phylogenetic analysis of E. faecium isolates (n = 39) and to identify the carriage of antibiotic resistance genes. A long-read s...
