Detection of the van alphabet and identification of enterococci and staphylococci at the species level by multiplex PCR.
A multiplex PCR assay was developed for detection of the six types of glycopeptide resistance characterized in enterococci and for identification of Enterococcus faecium, Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis at the species level. Primers targeting the genes vanA, vanB, vanC, vanD, vanE, vanG, and ddl of E. faecium and E. faecalis and nuc of S. aureus and ...

متن کاملMethicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA), and Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) contamination of food samples in Iran: A systematic review and meta-analysis
During the last years, antimicrobial resistance has become one of the greatest challenges in clinical settings. Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus are important nosocomial pathogens worldwide. In different corners of the world, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) have been isolated from various sources including different foods of an...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of the enterococcal vanA operon in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
Two methicillin- and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus strains, MI-VRSA and PA-VRSA, and Enterococcus faecalis DMC83006B, considered to be the potential donor of glycopeptide resistance to MI-VRSA, were studied. MI-VRSA is highly resistant to both glycopeptides, whereas PA-VRSA displays low-level resistance to vancomycin and reduced susceptibility to teicoplanin. We have analyzed the e...
متن کاملThe continuing threat of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus- Past Present Future
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus has been a major problem in the worldwide health care centres and institutions since the last 60 years . It has been a major pathogen responsible for nosocomial infections and recently has created life-threatening situations. Penicillin resistance was seen a few years after the drug was introduced. To solve this problem another drug of the penicillin ...
