Enterococcus
faecalis Enterococcus faecalis is a Gram-positive, coccal shaped, rod-shaped bacterium that is commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract of humans and other animals. It is known for its ability to survive in hostile environments, leading to its wide antibiotic resistance. Due to its resistance, Enterococcus faecalis is commonly used in biotechnology processes and research, such as in the production of enzymes and as an indicator organism in environmental studies. Additionally, some Enterococcus faecalis strains have proven beneficial in food production, as they can produce flavor compounds and can be used in the production of probiotic foods and therapeutic human medicines.
