Enterocooci - FA 2005 vs CMMRS

[Pollicis]

Members don't see this ad.

CMMRS page 27: Enterococci are alpha hemolytic
FA2005 page 173: Enterocooci are gamma hemolytic

Anyone know which is the right one?

Thanks all,

I believe they can be either.

For instance see http://pathmicro.med.sc.edu/fox/streptococci.htm (scroll down to Group D Strep)
