RM2BE0JBJ–Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) of Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci (VRE). Strains of the bacteria, Enterococci, that are resistant to the antibiotic vancomycin, known as Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci, were found in France in 1986. Illness due to VRE infections in healthy people is rare. Common infections caused by enterococci are urinary tract inections and wound infections.

RFHJ0C2K–Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of Staphylococcus warneri, coccoid, Gram-positive prokaryote. Staphylococcus warneri is a common commensal bacterium found on the skin of humans and animals. It is a coagulase-negative Staphylococcus sp. that rarely causes disease but it may cause infection in immunocompromised patients. It occasionally has been associated with cases of septicaemia and bacteraemia. Staphylococcus warneri is sensitive to the antibiotic, vancomycin. Magnification: x6, 000 when shortest axis printed at 25 millimetres.

RM2BE0G8X–This scanning electron micrograph depicts a grouping of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria. They are from one of the first isolates in the U.S. that showed increased resistance to vancomycin as well. Note the increase in cell wall material seen as clumps on the organism's surface. Recently recognized outbreaks or clusters of MRSA in community settings have been associated with strains that have some unique microbiologic and genetic properties compared to the traditional hospital-based MRSA strains. This suggests that some biologic properties, e.g., virulence factors li

RMK1FEHF–This scanning electron micrograph (SEM) depicted numbers of bacteria, which were identified as being Gram-positive Enterococcus sp. bacteria. Previously identified as 'Group D' Streptococcus organisms, the most clinically relevant of these bacteria are, E. faecalis, and E. faecium . Enterococcus spp. bacteria are notoriously linked as etiologic agents responsible for nosocomial, or 'hospital-borne' illnesses, such as 'Vancomycin Resistant Enterococci', or VRE infections. These organisms are 'commensal' in nature, which means that they normally colonize the human digestive tract, and become pat
