Rapid detection of Enterococcus and vancomycin resistance using recombinase polymerase amplification

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), especially Enterococcus faecium, have been a global concern, often causing serious healthcare-associated infections. We established a rapid approach for detecting E. faecium and vancomycin-resistance genes (vanA and vanB) in clinical samples using isothermal r...
