Abstract
In 70 strains of the genus Enterococcus belonging to 16 species and isolated from clinical material, animals and the environment, a hydroxamic class of siderophores was detected with the aid of chemical and biological tests. A correlation between siderophore activity and species affiliation was found: E. faecalis strains showed the highest siderophore activity. A correlation between siderophore activity and pathogenicity could not be confirmed.
