Abstract excerpt
The Enterobacter cloacae complex (ECC) consists of closely-related, but genetically distinct bacteria commonly associated with the human microbiota. ECC have been increasingly isolated from healthcare-associated infections, demonstrating that these Enterobacteriaceae are emerging nosocomial pathogens. ECC strains can rapidly acquire multidrug resistance to conventional antibiotics. Cationic antimicrobial peptides...
