Development of a workflow for the detection of vancomycin-resistant enterococcus faecium and enterococcus faecalis from rectal swabs using the spectra vre medium

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Kendall Kling from the Clinical Microbiology Laboratory, Department of Pathology, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, N Fairbanks Ct, Chicago, IL, USA have published the research work: Development of a workflow for the detection of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis from rectal swabs using the spectra VRE medium, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: In our experience, the Spectrau2122 VRE agar performs well at predicting VRE faecium, but is unreliable for speciation and vancomycin-resistance for E. faecalis.
  • how: In the future growth quantity may be used to further streamline the . . .
