MIT: Micro Imaging Technology Adds Enterococcus Faecalis to Its Catalog of Identifiers

Micro Imaging Technology, Inc. (OTCQB: MMTC) announced that its MIT 1000 System can now identify Enterococcus faecalis, a bacterial species found in human feces and in the intestines of many warm-blooded animals; occasionally found in urinary infections and in blood and heart lesions in cases of subacute endocarditis. E. faecalis can cause life-threatening infections in humans, especially in the hospital environment, where the naturally high levels of antibiotic resistance found in E. faecalis contribute to its pathogenicity. E. faecalis has been frequently found in root canal-treated teeth which are about nine times more likely to harbor the bacteria than cases of primary infections.read more
