The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of vancomycin resistance and evaluate the effect of fosfomycin (FM), rifampin (RIF), vancomycin (VAN), linezolid (LNZ), daptomycin (DAP) alone or in combination against VRE.METHODSEight VRE isolates were collected. A total of 18 antibiotics susceptibility tests were further done for VRE. Whole genome sequencing and bioinformatics… Show more
