- A study found that enterococci developed tolerance to alcohol, but researchers tested 55 vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium and found no increase in alcohol resistance.
- They measured the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of isopropyl alcohol, finding none higher than 11.5%.
- Overall, the results suggest that alcohol remains effective for hand hygiene in hospital settings.
