A Simple and Rapid Low-Cost Procedure for Detection of Vancomycin-Resistance Genes in Enterococci Reveals an Outbreak of Vancomycin-Variable <i>Enterococcus faecium</i>

The detection of resistance to vancomycin in enterococci cultured from patients is important for the treatment of individual patients and for the prevention of hospital transmission. Phenotypic antimicrobial resistance tests may fail to detect potential vancomycin-resistant enterococci. We have deve...
