2019-01-25
Abstract excerpt
Aim. Today, infections caused by vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) are a major problem in the healthcare system. The aim of this study was to compare the antibiotic resistance and virulence traits between vancomycin-susceptible E. faecium (VSE) and VRE clinical isolates.Material and Methods. Studies were performed on 66 E. faecium (32 VRE and 34 VSE) strains. Susceptibility testing and identification...
