Enterococcus faecalis is a species of bacteria that is naturally found in the intestines. While it tends to be harmless in that environment, it has the potential to cause a serious infection if it ...

A new study describes how bacteria adapted to the modern hospital environment and repeatedly cause antibiotic-resistant bloodstream infections. This study examined one of the first sustained hospital ...

A new study finds that two subtypes of pathogenic Escherichia coli (E. coli) produce five to 16 times more protective capsular 'slime' when Enterococcus faecalis (EF) is present. The finding could ...

Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) is an infection that happens when Enterococci bacteria — which live in the the gut and bowel — become too numerous or spread to other parts of the body. It can ...

Everyone has bacteria that live in their intestines and genital tract. In fact, your body has trillions of bacteria at any one point in time. They help with bodily functions like digesting food and ...
