dc.description.abstractInfections and outbreaks of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) still appear to be rare in Turkey In the present study. VRE strains isolated during an outbreak in a haematology unit of a training and research hospital in Turkey were typed and their antimicrobial-resistance patterns were characterized by molecular methods Twelve vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faeciurn strains isolated from patients with haematological malignancies were investigated by PCR for the presence of genes encoding resistance to vancomycin. tetracycline, chloramphenicol, gentamicin and erythromycin Their clonal relationship was evaluated by PFGE and multilocus sequence typing. All strains were resistant to vancomycin and erythromycin, and had the vanA and ermB genes, respectively. PFGE was used to determine the presence of two pulsotypes and determine their subtypes. Pulsotype A belonged to sequence type (ST) 17 and pulsotype B belonged to ST 78. All strains with the vanA gene were not the same clone, indicating multiple acquisitions of resistant isolates, even over such a short time period.en_US
