Details of the sampling scheme and of the isolation, identification, and susceptibility testing of enterococci from broilers and pigs have been published previously (5, 10).
All isolates were recovered from cecal samples (pigs) or cloacal swabs (broilers) from healthy animals, and only a single isolate per pig herd or broiler flock was included. The number of samples collected monthly from pigs and weekly from broilers from each slaughterhouse was proportional to the annual number of animals slaughtered. This ensures, as far as possible, that samples are representative of the entire country and that each sample represents a herd or flock.
