ESKAPE group ( Enterococci , Staphylococci , Klebsiella pneumoniae , Acinetobacter baumannii , Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Enterobacteriaceae ) is an ongoing challenge in clinical practice [ 3 ]. Since phase III trials showed its therapeutic

Gram-positives were 83.3%. Among Gram-positive Enterococci spp, either E. feacalis or Enterococcus faecium could be identified directly with 100% identification; however, Staphylococci spp. could not be identified ( Table 2 ). In our study, five
