Published in 2020 at "Food Control"

DOI: 10.1016/j.foodcont.2019.107033

Abstract: Abstract The ability of four enterococcal strains to survive human digestion and maintain their antibiotic resistance (AR) traits was investigated to determine the health risk posed by seafood-borne streptomycin-, erythromycin-, tetracycline- and gentamycin-resistant enterococci. After… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "International journal of antimicrobial agents"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2019.04.010

Abstract: OBJECTIVE The optimal therapy for serious enterococcal infections, especially vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), remains unclear, although combination therapy is often recommended. Oritavancin has demonstrated in-vitro activity against VRE, but data evaluating oritavancin in combination with other… read more here.
