Probiotic potential of Enterococcus faecium ED22: evidence from genomic analysis and in vitro characterization
Enterococcus species are ubiquitous members of the human microbiota, but their potential to act as opportunistic pathogens requires careful, strain-specific safety assessment. This study characterized Enterococcus faecium ED22 using a polyphasic approach combining whole-genome sequencing (WGS) with in vitro phen...
