Genetic diversity and persistent colonization of Enterococcus faecalis on ocular surfaces
Abstract
Enterococcus faecalis causes severe acute endophthalmitis and often leads to poor visual outcomes. Conjunctival bacterial cultures occasionally grow atypical bacteria including E. faecalis, which can potentially contribute to the development of postoperative endophthalmitis. However, the characteristics of these ocular E. faecalis strains are unknown. This study is the first attempt to determine the population characteristics of E. faecalis...
