Enterococcus species distribution among human and animal hosts using multiplex PCR

This study evaluated the use of Enterococcus species differentiation as a tool for microbial source tracking (MST) in recreational waters. Avian, mammalian and human faecal samples were screened for the occurrence of Enterococcus avium, Enterococcus casseliflavus, Enterococcus durans, Enterococcus g...
