Phenotypic and phylogenetic characterisation of some Gemella-like organisms from human infections: description of Dolosigranulum pigrum gen. nov., sp. nov. (1993)
Journal Article
Aguirre, M., Morrison, D., Cookson, B. D., Gay, F. W., & Collins, M. D. (1993). Phenotypic and phylogenetic characterisation of some Gemella-like organisms from human infections: description of Dolosigranulum pigrum gen. nov., sp. nov. The journal of applied bacteriology, 75, 608-612

A phylogenetic analysis was performed on two previously uncharacterized Gram-positive, catalase-negative bacteria from clinical sources. 16S rRNA sequencing studies revealed the isolates represent a new line of descent within the lactic acid group of...

Comparison of high-level gentamicin resistant (HLGR) Enterococcus faecium isolates from different continents. (1993)
Journal Article
Woodford, N., Morrison, D., Cookson, B. D., & George, R. C. (1993). Comparison of high-level gentamicin resistant (HLGR) Enterococcus faecium isolates from different continents. Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 37, 681-684

Eight clinical isolates of Enterococcus faecium highly resistant to gentamicin (MIC, > 1,000 mg/liter) from patients in six hospitals on three continents were investigated for evidence of spread of either a clone of high-level gentamicin-resistant (H...

Application of DNA probes for rRNA and vanA genes to investigation of a nosocomial cluster of vancomycin-resistant enterococci. (1993)
Journal Article
Woodford, N., Morrison, D., Johnson, A. P., Briant, V., Cookson, B. D., & George, R. C. (1993). Application of DNA probes for rRNA and vanA genes to investigation of a nosocomial cluster of vancomycin-resistant enterococci. Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 31, 653-658

DNA probes specific for genes encoding rRNA and the glycopeptide resistance gene vanA were used to investigate a cluster of vancomycin-resistant (MICs, > 512 mg/liter) Enterococcus faecalis and Enterococcus faecium isolated from separate patients in...
