Enterococcus casseliflavus is a species of commensal Gram-positive bacteria. Its name derived from the "flavus" the Latin word for yellow due to the bright yellow pigment that it produces. [2] This organism can be found in the gastrointestinal tract of humans [3] The most common form of E. casseliflavus infection is bacteremia. [4]
Enterococcus is a large genus of lactic acid bacteria of the phylum Bacillota. Enterococci are Gram-positive cocci that often occur in pairs ( diplococci ) or short chains, and are difficult to distinguish from streptococci on physical characteristics alone. [ 2 ]
Bile Esculin Agar (BEA) is a selective differential agar used to isolate and identify members of the genus Enterococcus, [1] formerly part of the "group D streptococci" (enterococci were reclassified in their own genus in 1984). [2]
A Gram stain of mixed Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus ATCC 25923, gram-positive cocci, in purple) and Escherichia coli (E. coli ATCC 11775, gram-negative bacilli, in red), the most common Gram stain reference bacteria. Gram stain (Gram staining or Gram's method), is a method of staining used to classify bacterial species into two large groups ...
Enterococcus gallinarum is a species of Enterococcus. [3] E. gallinarum demonstrates an inherent, low-level resistance to vancomycin.Resistance is due to a chromosomal gene, vanC, which encodes for a terminal D-alanine-D-serine instead of the usual D-alanine-D-alanine in cell wall peptidoglycan precursor proteins. [4]
Plus, it's been treated with a 3M Scotchgard treatment that helps release stains easily and wicks away moisture. Nearly 2,000 reviewers give it top marks, too. "My grandkids love them for their beds.
The U.S. hospice industry has quadrupled in size since 2000. Nearly half of all Medicare patients who die now do so as a hospice patient — twice as many as in 2000, government data shows.

[1] A common use for CNA agar is commonly used for the detection of Streptococcus agalactiae carriage in pregnant women. [2]
