Resistance to linezolid has been associated with a G2576U mutation in domain V of the 23S rRNA. We analyzed nine clinical isolates of linezolid-resistant enterococci and showed a clear association bet
The aim of the study was to identify risk factors associated with prolonged carriage of linezolid-resistant Enterococcus faecalis or Enterococcus faecium, respectively.
Linezolid is used as a first line treatment of vancomycin resistant Enterococcus (VRE) infection. Combined linezolid and vancomycin resistance cause treatment difficulties. The emergence of linezolid
