Coagulase-positive Staphylococci (CoPS) can exist as commensals in humans, companion and food-producing animals, but can cause severe or even lethal diseases. Exchange of these bacteria between humans and animals has been described. Special attention has

This study reveals a high prevalence of foodborne S. aureus in northwest Hubei Province, with MRSA strains displaying significantly elevated antibiotic resistance and biofilm‐forming capacities compared to MSSA strains. The high carriage rates of enterotoxin genes across isolates underscore the potential of these strains to contribute to foodborne ...

The aldehyde dehydrogenase AldA contributes to the hypochlorite defense and is redox-controlled by protein S-bacillithiolation in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus produces bacillithiol (BSH) as major low molecular weight (LMW) thiol which functions in thiol-protection and redox-regulation by protein S-bacillithiolation under hypochlorite stress.

Prophages play a significant role in modulating bacterial virulence and pathogenicity. Our results suggest domestication of φSa3int prophage leads to reduced phagocytosis mediating escape of S. aureus from human innate immunity. As such, targeted identification of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in addition to species and strain identification may lead ...

Panton-Valentine Leukocidin–positiveStaphylococcus aureus, Singapore
To the Editor: Necrotizing community-acquired pneumonia attributable to Panton-Valentine leukocidin–producing strains of Staphylococcus aureus has been described as a distinct clinical syndrome with a high death rate in young, immunocompetent patients (1,2). This letter details the first reported case of necrotizing pneumonia caused by Panton-Valentine

The results indicated high prevalence of MRSA in broilers, which is very worrying issue. It was observed that due to the increase in the use of antibiotics in poultry farming, bacteria resistant to methicillin and other antibiotics have a high prevalence.

Virulence and antimicrobial resistance genes in human MRSA ST398 isolates in Austria [PDF]
This study determined the genetic background of virulence and resistance genes of MRSA ST398 in Austria. From 2004 up to 2008 a total of 41 human isolates of MRSA ST398 were investigated for virulence and resistance gene patterns using DNA microarray ...

This graphical abstract text can be better represented through illustrations for milk samples, bacteria, risk factors (e.g., handwashing, containers), and antibiotic resistance patterns for clearer understanding and to increase engagement. ABSTRACT Background Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is a versatile pathogen that causes diseases. Raw milk is an

ABSTRACT Hematogenous prosthetic joint infections (PJIs) are primarily associated with Staphylococcus aureus, and there is a 30%–40% risk of contracting a hematogenous PJI following an S. aureus bacteremia. The aim of this study was to investigate whether identical strains of S. aureus were present in each patient from a cohort with both bacteremia and
