Evaluation of d-Xylose and 1% Methyl-α-d-Glucopyranoside Fermentation Tests for Distinguishing Enterococcus gallinarum from Enterococcus faecium

To determine the validity of the rapid xylose and methyl-α-d-glucopyranoside (MDG) fermentation tests in distinguishing Enterococcus gallinarum from Enterococcus faecium, 156 well-characterized clinical isolates of enterococci (55 E. gallinarum, 91 E. faecium, and 10 Enterococcus faecalis isolates)...
