virulence traits and antibiotic resistance among enterococci isolated from eurasian otter (lutra lutra). | enterococci are ubiquitous microorganisms found as part of the normal intestinal microbiota of many animals such as the free-ranging eurasian otter (lutra lutra linnaeus, 1758). in this work, twenty-nine enterococci isolated from fecal samples of eurasian otters free-living in reservoirs and associated river stretches in south portugal were identified and typed by conventional/molecular methods and screened for virulence factors and antibiotic resistance. identification allocated the isolates to ... | 2013 | 23375652 |
