Effects of non-<i>aureus</ i> staphylococci on colostrum composition, properties and fatty acid profile in cow – a preliminary study [PDF]
By providing the body with essential nutrients, colostrum plays an immune and immunostimulating function. Colostrum quality depends on multiple factors, including microbial presence.

Known mechanisms cannot account for a third of reduced susceptibility in non-aureus staphylococci. [PDF]
AbstractNon-aureus staphylococci (NAS) are implicated in many healthcare-acquired infections and an understanding of the genetics of antimicrobial resistance is important in relation to both clinical intervention and the role of NAS as a reservoir of resistance genes.

Farming Practice Influences Antimicrobial Resistance Burden of Non-Aureus Staphylococci in Pig Husbandries. [PDF]
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) are ubiquitous bacteria in livestock-associated environments where they may act as reservoirs of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) genes for pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus. Here, we tested whether housing conditions in pig farms could influence the overall AMR-NAS burden.

Peptidomic changes in the milk of water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) with intramammary infection by non-aureus staphylococci. [PDF]
Abstract Mastitis by non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) is a significant issue in dairy buffalo farming. In a herd with subclinical NAS mastitis, we identified Staphylococcus microti as the predominant species. To assess milk protein integrity and investigate potential disease markers, we characterized 12 NAS-positive and 12 healthy quarter milk ...

Species identification and cow risks of non-aureus staphylococci from South African dairy herds. [PDF]
Detailed information on specific species of non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) has become a necessity for effective udder health control programs in South Africa. The main objective of this preliminary study was to identify the different NAS species and strains present in dairy herds in South Africa using a cost-effective method. A further objective was to

Metabolites of bovine-associated non-aureus staphylococci influence expression of Staphylococcus aureus agr-related genes in vitro. [PDF]
AbstractCommunications via quorum sensing (QS) between non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) and Staphylococcus (S.) aureus in the bovine mammary gland remains largely unexplored. We determined whether 34 S. chromogenes, 11 S. epidermidis, and 14 S. simulans isolates originating from bovine milk samples and teat apices were able to regulate the QS of S ...

Molecular characterization of non-aureus staphylococci and Mammaliicoccus from Hipposideros bats in Southwest Nigeria. [PDF]
AbstractBats are not only ecologically valuable mammals but also reservoirs of zoonotic pathogens. Their vast population, ability to fly, and inhabit diverse ecological niches could play some role in the spread of antibiotic resistance. This study investigated non-aureus staphylococci and Mammaliicoccus colonization in the Hipposideros bats at Obafemi ...

Species Distribution, Antimicrobial Resistance, and Enterotoxin Profiles of Non-<i>aureus</i> Staphylococci Isolated from Poultry Slaughterhouses in Korea. [PDF]
Although non-aureus staphylococci (NAS), such as coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS), can substantially affect human and animal health, information on NAS species distribution in poultry slaughterhouses and their antimicrobial resistance (AMR) profiles is limited.

Non-aureus staphylococci and mammaliicocci isolated from bovine milk in Italian dairy farms: a retrospective investigation. [PDF]
Abstract Non- aureus staphylococci and mammaliicocci (NASM) are associated with bovine mastitis and increased milk somatic cell count (SCC) but their relationships with mammary gland health at the species level are not clearly defined.
