ABSTRACT
512 ?g/ml for vancomycin.Thirty seven VanA genes were detected in 37 VREFm.The drug resistance rates to erythromycin,ampicillin,levofloxacin,gentamicin,ciprofloxacin,nitrofurantoin(Euradantin) and chloramphenicol were 100.0%,100.0%,89.2%,86.5%,91.9%,59.5%,and 5.4%,respectively.The REP-PCR generated 3-14 bands between 100 and 2000bp.They were divided into six types.CONCLUSIONS There is 100.0% agreement between phenotypes and genotypes in VREFm.VREFm are multiresistant.REP-PCR method is simple,rapid,and with lower cost to detect the homology in enterococci.
