Prevalence of non-aureus Staphylococcus species causing intramammary infections in Canadian dairy herds [PDF]
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS), the microorganisms most frequently isolated from bovine milk worldwide, are a heterogeneous group of numerous species. To establish their importance as a group, the distribution of individual species needs to be determined.

Evaluation of the Coverage of 3 Antibiotic Regimens for Neonatal Sepsis in the Hospital Setting Across Asian Countries. [PDF]
Importance: High levels of antimicrobial resistance in neonatal bloodstream isolates are being reported globally, including in Asia. Local hospital antibiogram data may include too few isolates to meaningfully examine the expected coverage of antibiotic ...

Developments in diagnostics and antibiotic resistance of coagulase positive, maltose negative staphylococci from milk of dairy cows [PDF]
In South Africa, as is done with routine Veterinary diagnostics worldwide, focus is on a fast turnaround time and relatively low cost. Staphylococci are identified using the coagulase test (Staphylase test, Oxoid). In more recent years, further diagnosis

Biotyping coagulase-negative staphylococci [PDF]
The biochemical profiles obtained with Staph-Ident (Analytab Products, Plainview, N.Y.) panels were combined with the results of adherence and synergistic hemolysis tests to define biotypes among 1,064 clinical isolates representing eight species of coagulase-negative staphylococci.

Pilot study into milk haptoglobin as an indicator of udder health in heifers after calving [PDF]
Mastitis, inflammation of the mammary gland, is often caused by intramammary infection with bacterial organisms. It impacts on dairy cattle welfare, production, udder health and longevity in the herd.

Mechanisms of linezolid resistance among coagulase-negative staphylococci determined by whole-genome sequencing. [PDF]
UnlabelledLinezolid resistance is uncommon among staphylococci, but approximately 2% of clinical isolates of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) may exhibit resistance to linezolid (MIC, ≥8 µg/ml).

Molecular typing of Staphylococcus aureus based on coagulase gene [PDF]
Aim: This study was conducted to study the coagulase gene-based genetic diversity of Staphylococcus aureus, isolated from different samples of cattle using restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and their sequence-based phylogenetic analysis.

Long subcutaneous tunnelling reduces infection rates in paediatric external ventricular drains [PDF]
Purpose The aim of this study is to report the efficacy of long subcutaneous tunnelling of external ventricular drains in reducing rates of infection and catheter displacement in a paediatric population. Methods In children requiring external ventricular
