Characterization of Enterococci isolated from intensive care unit (ICU); Distribution of virulence markers, virulence genes and antibiotic resistance pattern

Abstract
Background: Enterococci are considered as the third most common cause of nosocomial infections.Enterococci acquire antibiotic resistance by gene transfer.Virulence factors facilitate colonization and evasion from the immune system.Our objectives were to evaluate the distribution of virulence markers and genes among enterococci isolated from intensive care unit (ICU) in Sohag University Hospital an...
