在两家医院使用 PCR 技术对直肠拭子中肠球菌相关万古霉素耐药基因 vanA、vanB、vanD、vanE 和 vanG 的存在进行了调查。所有检测到的 vanA 基因均与耐万古霉素肠球菌 (VRE) 相关，而与 VRE 相关的 vanB 基因仅在一家医院检测到 (4.7%)。然而，在两家医院中，发现与肠球菌无关的vanB（6.2%和2.3%）、vanD（43.8%和26.7%）和vanG（10.5%和6.9%）基因的患病率较高。
The presence of Enterococcus-associated vancomycin resistance genes vanA, vanB, vanD, vanE, and vanG in rectal swabs was investigated in two hospitals using PCR. All vanA genes detected were associated with vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), whereas VRE-associated vanB genes were detected in only one hospital (4.7%). However, in both hospitals, high prevalences of vanB (6.2 and 2.3%), vanD (43.8 and 26.7%), and vanG (10.5 and 6.9%) genes not associated with enterococci were found.
