“…The interpretation of the disk diffusion antibiogram is an inexpensive and accurate method to detect β-lactam resistance in gram-positive bacteria. Glycopeptide resistance is rare in S. aureus and it is determined by the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value ( 39 , 40 ). In E. faecium , genotypic methods may be more useful as they provide a rapid response, particularly since they may be used directly on clinical samples ( 41 ).…”

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a growing public health problem worldwide. Infections with such bacteria lead to longer hospitalization times, higher healthcare costs and greater morbidity and mortality. Thus, there is a greater need for rapid detection methods in order to limit their spread. The ESKAPE pathogens ( Enterococcus faecium , Staphylococcus aureus , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Acinetobacter baumannii , Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterobacter spp.) are a series of epidemiologically-important microorganisms of great concern due to their high levels of resistance. This review aimed to update the background information on the ESKAPE pathogens as well as to provide a summary of the numerous phenotypic and molecular methods used to detect their AMR mechanisms. While they are usually linked to hospital acquired infections, AMR is also spreading in the veterinary and the environmental sectors. Yet, the epidemiological loop closes with patients which, when infected with such pathogens, often lack therapeutic options. Thus, it was aimed to give the article a One Health perspective.
