Abstract:
In the present research, we aimed to determine the characteristics of E. faecalis strains collected from an Iranian Children’s Hospital for four years. Sixty-seven E. faecalis isolates with virulence genes detection, variable-number tandem repeat (VNTR), and multiple-locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) typing were investigated. A high frequency of virulence genes belonged to gelatinase (۷۳%) and Enterococcus faecalis (۶۲%). The MLVA of ۶۷ E. faecalis isolates revealed ۵۲ VNTR patterns and ۳۸ MLVA types (MTs). Furthermore, genetic diversities with the majority of the MT۱ as a major MT in different Wards of the Children’s Hospital were found.
