Article Synopsis
- * Out of 63 isolates, all were MDR, with complete resistance to gentamicin, tobramycin, and cefoxitin; however, they remained susceptible to colistin, and multiple resistance gene profiles were identified.
- * Five sequence types (STs) were discovered, with ST235 being the most prevalent, indicating a concerning trend in antibiotic resistance and the spread of these strains among patients.
Background: Enterococci are opportunistic pathogens and are a major factor in nosocomial infections. They may contain ebp operon, which upon expression makes them highly prone to biofilm formation on biotic and abiotic surfaces.
Objectives: The aim of the current study was to detect the polymorphism of ebp genes in Enterococcus faecalis.
