Influence of low-level resistance to vancomycin on efficacy of teicoplanin and vancomycin for treatment of experimental endocarditis due to Enterococcus faecium.
Emergence of vancomycin-resistant strains among enterococci raises a new clinical challenge. Rabbits with aortic endocarditis were infected with Enterococcus faecium BM4172, a clinical strain resistant to low levels of vancomycin (MIC, 16 micrograms/ml) and susceptible to teicoplanin (MIC, 1 microgr...
