A new study led by a research team from Massachusetts Eye and Ear and Harvard Medical School describes how bacteria adapted to the modern hospital environment and repeatedly cause antibiotic-resistant ...

Researchers have engineered a plasmid to remove an antibiotic resistance gene from the Enterococcus faecalis bacterium, an accomplishment that could lead to new methods for combating antibiotic ...

Researchers have revealed how a common bacterium, Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis), releases lactic acid to acidify its surroundings and suppress the immune-cell signal needed to start a proper ...

Sali Morris receives funding from the GW4 BioMed MRC DTP. The funding is for basic research into the regulatory networks that control antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus faecalis. James S. Horton ...

A study published in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy demonstrates that CRISPR/Cas9-encoding delivery plasmids can be successfully used for combating antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus ...

A team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE) and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) have challenged ...

Researchers published the full genetic timeline of the bacterium, Enterococcus faecalis showing the influence of human behaviour on the development of different strains. Modern hospitals and ...

A short time to positivity (TTP), the period from incubation to blood culture positivity, may help predict mortality rates for patients with Enterococcus faecalis and vancomycin-sensitive E faecium ...
