This study compared virulence and antibiotic resistance traits in clinical and environmental
Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium isolates. E. faecalis isolates harboured a …

This study aimed at assessing the role of ubiquitous (non-Escherichia coli)
Enterobacteriaceae in the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance through the urban water …

Untreated drinking water is frequently overlooked as a source of antibiotic resistance in
developed countries. To gain further insight on this topic, we isolated the indicator bacteria …

Aim It is well‐known that enterococci are abundant in the environment; however, the role of
surface water as a reservoir of antimicrobial‐resistant enterococci remains largely …

We investigated for the first time the occurrence, stability and antibiotic resistance of 593
enterococci in six samples collected from three urban sewage treatment plants (STPs) …

To determine if hospital effluent input has an ecological impact on downstream aquatic
environment, antibiotic resistance in Enterococcus spp. along a medical center-retirement …

The main objective of this work was to study the ecology of enterococci and related bacteria
in raw and treated wastewater from a treatment plant receiving domestic and pretreated …

Antibiotic resistance is a major 21 st century One Health (humans, animals, environment)
challenge whose spread limits options to treat bacterial infections. There is growing interest …

One hundred-fourteen samples of wastewater (n= 64) and surface-water (n= 50) were
inoculated in Slanetz–Bartley agar plates supplemented or not with gentamicin (SB-Gen and …
