Comparative genome analysis of 24 bovine-associated Staphylococcus isolates with special focus on the putative virulence genes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) are most commonly isolated from subclinical mastitis. Different NAS species may, however, have diverse effects on the inflammatory response in the udder. We determined the genome sequences of 20 staphylococcal isolates from

Effective elimination of Staphylococcal contamination from hospital surfaces by a bacteriophage-probiotic sanitation strategy: a monocentric study. [PDF]
, 2019 Persistent contamination of hospital surfaces and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) are recognized major causes of healthcare-associated infections (HAI). We recently showed that a probiotic-based sanitation (PCHS) can stably decrease surface pathogens and ...

Detection of Some Virulence Factors in Staphylococci Isolated from Mastitic Cows and Ewes
Folia Veterinaria, 2022 About 150 million families around the world are engaged in milk production. However, inflammation of the mammary gland (mastitis) remains a major problem in dairy ruminants that affects the quality of milk worldwide.

Decreased neutrophil bactericidal activity during phagocytosis of a slime-producing Staphylococcus aureus strain. [PDF]
, 2000 Phagocytosis and intracellular killing by bovine polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN) are important host defence mechanisms against mastitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus. We compared the phagocytosis and overall killing of a non slime-producing (NSP) S.

Transfer of antibiotic resistance in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]
, 2017 Staphylococcus aureus is a serious human pathogen with remarkable adaptive powers. Antibiotic-resistant clones rapidly emerge mainly by acquisition of antibiotic-resistance genes from other S. aureus strains or even from other genera.
