In 1899, Thiercilin used the term “enterococcus” to describe microscopic organisms seen in pairs or short chains in feces.

In contrast to other groups of streptococci, the group D antigen is not a wall carbohydrate but a glycerol teichoic acid containing glucose and D-alanine. This antigen appears to be related directly to the cytoplasm or plasma membrane.

This is confirmed by the fact that cracks can form in certain sharply notched specimens at stress amplitudes which do not cause their complete fracture (8).…”
