Evaluation of the AdvanDx VRE EVIGENE assay for detection of vanA in vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.

G E Fosheim1, R B Carey, B M Limbago.   

Abstract

AdvanDx VRE EVIGENE, a commercial vanA/vanB DNA hybridization assay to identify vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE), was evaluated for the detection of vanA in Staphylococcus aureus. Performance was assessed using S. aureus, VRE, and vancomycin-intermediate and -susceptible isolates. The assay demonstrated 100% sensitivity and specificity when analyzed visually and by optical density.
