Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is important pathogens of nosocomial infections. Because of their thick cell walls, they are inherently resistant to multiple classes of antibiotics. In addition, this group of pathogenic bacteria is prone to acquiring drug resistance. With the overuse of antibiotics, their acquired resistance is also increasing.
In order to quickly find strains capable of producing new compounds in response to the emerging drug resistance crisis, CD BioSciences provides an advanced technology platform for E. faecalis-based pathogenic bacteria screening service. Our MicroScanTM technology platform is development to meet customer's personalized customization needs.
Overview of E. faecalis
- Basics about E. faecalis
E. faecalis, which is widely distributed in the natural environment and in the human digestive tract, is Gram-positive cocci, and was first named in 1906.
- Toxicity Factors of E. faecalis
The distribution of virulence genes or potential virulence genes in Enterococcus has been studied more frequently, and the detection rate of virulence genes in Enterococcus varies widely among different sources and species. E. faecalis is an opportunistic pathogenic bacterium, its pathogenic mechanism is complex, the main pathogenic factors at present are aggregation substance, surface adhesins, the lytic enzymes gelatinase, and the toxin cytolysin. E. faecalis is prone to acquiring drug resistance, and we should be cautious when using antibiotics.
Types of Diseases Caused by E. faecalis
 Tissues Infections |
 Endocarditis |
 Intra-abdominal Infections |
|
| E. faecalis can cause skin and soft tissues infections under certain conditions，for example, decreased body immunity. | Endocarditis infection is a disease with a high clinical mortality rate. E. faecalis is the third leading cause of sexual endocarditis infections. | Intra-abdominal infections caused by E. faecalis pathogens are clinically important infectious conditions. | |
 Urinary Tract Infections |
 Bacteremia |
||
| In clinical practice, urinary tract infections caused by E. faecalis are mainly upper and lower urinary tract infections, which are relatively common conditions. | Acute systemic infection caused by E. faecalis bacteria that invade the blood circulation to grow and multiply, producing toxins and other metabolites. | ||
Our Service
CD BioSciences provides probiotics screening service using E. faecalis as an indicator strain. Our MicroScanTM technology platform can discovery bacteria strains that Inhibit the growth of the indicator strain, which perhaps generate new antibacterial drugs as antibiotics. This platform provides a new approach for screening and detecting microbial interactions and it can be applied to any microbial flora.
