Journal Article
Woodford, N., Morrison, D., Johnson, A. P., Bateman, A. C., Hasting, J. G., Elliott, T. S. & Cookson, B. D. (1994). Plasmid mediated VanB Glycopeptide resistance in Enterococci. Microbial Drug Resistance. 1. . 235-240. . ISSN 1076-6294.

Enterococcus faecium, which was highly resistant to vancomycin (MIC 256 mg/liter), but susceptible to teicoplanin (MIC 2 mg/liter), caused two distinct episodes of infection on a renal unit in the United Kingdom. Pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFG... Read More about Plasmid mediated VanB Glycopeptide resistance in Enterococci..

Current perspectives on glycopeptide resistance. (1995)
Journal Article
Woodford, N., Johnson, A. P., Morrison, D. & Speller, D. C. (1995). Current perspectives on glycopeptide resistance. Clinical Microbiology Reviews. 8. . 585-615. . ISSN 0893-8512.

In the last 5 years, clinical isolates of gram-positive bacteria with intrinsic or acquired resistance to glycopeptide antibiotics have been encountered increasingly. In many of these isolates, resistance arises from an alteration of the antibiotic t... Read More about Current perspectives on glycopeptide resistance..
