Prevalence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococci on a Farm: Staff can Harbour MRS When Animals do Not
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-02-01)
The aim of this work was to establish the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococci (MRS) in the animals and staff of a teaching and research farm. Samples of dairy cattle (36), beef cattle (26), sheep (19), horses ...
Characterization of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci in milk from cows with mastitis in Brazil
(Springer, 2014-08-01)
Staphylococci are one of the most prevalent microorganisms in bovine mastitis. Staphylococcus spp. are widespread in the environment, and can infect animals and humans as opportunistic pathogens. The objective of this study ...
Methods for detection of oxacillin resistance among coagulase-negative staphylococci recovered from patients with bloodstream infections at the University Hospital in Brazil
(2012)
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are among the main causative agents of nosocomial infections, and multi-resistant strains has become a major issue over the past decades. The objectives of this study are to determine ...
Molecular identification of coagulase-negative staphylococci isolated from bovine mastitis and detection of beta-lactam resistance
(Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2015-09)
Introduction: Bovine mastitis is a frequent cause of economic loss in dairy herds. Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) are increasing in importance as cause of bovine intramammary infection throughout the world in ...
Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance patterns of methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) isolated in a Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Brazil
(Academic Journals, 2010-09-18)
We investigated the prevalence of methicillin-resistant staphylococci (MRS) in humans and dogs and evaluated the antimicrobial resistance patterns of these bacteria at a Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Specimens from 50 human ...
Staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCCmec) in methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci. A review and the experience in a tertiary-care setting
(2010)
Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) are increasingly recognized to cause clinically significant infections, with S. epidermidis often cited as the third most common cause of nosocomial sepsis. Among CNS, there is a high ...
