From: Role of membrane vesicles in the transmission of vancomycin resistance in Enterococcus faecium
| Exemplary size distribution of representative membrane vesicle (MV) samples derived from vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE). MVs were gained under vancomycin stress (MVs/VAN) produced by VRE isolates of sequence types (STs) ST80 (a) and ST117 (b). In both cases (a, b), three biological replicates (R1–R3) were examined by nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA) in five measurement cycles of 60 s each. The results are presented as mean ± standard error, shown as shading. For error analysis, the standard evaluation of the NanoSight NTA 3.4 software was used.
