The occurrence of Aerococcus urinaeequi and non-aureus staphylococci in raw milk negatively correlates with Escherichia coli clinical mastitis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Escherichia coli is a common environmental pathogen associated with clinical mastitis (CM) in dairy cattle. There is an interest in optimizing the udder microbiome to increase the resistance of dairy cattle to E.

Comprehensive Phylogenetic Analysis of Bovine Non-aureus Staphylococci Species Based on Whole-Genome Sequencing [PDF]
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS), a heterogeneous group of a large number of species and subspecies, are the most frequently isolated pathogens from intramammary infections in dairy cattle. Phylogenetic relationships among bovine NAS species are controversial and have mostly been determined based on single-gene trees.

Background: Staphylococcus aureus and other staphylococci are the commensals of the human body, the anterior nares being an important niche for colonisation. The medical students constitute an important component of the hospital population.

Prevalence of non-aureus staphylococci 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.

Staphylococci are associated with both humans and animals. While most are non-pathogenic colonizers, Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen capable of causing severe infections. S.

In Silico Genome-Scale Reconstruction and Validation of the Staphylococcus aureus Metabolic Network [PDF]
A genome-scale metabolic model of the Gram-positive, facultative anaerobic opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus N315 was constructed based on current genomic data, literature, and physiological information.

Comparative genome analysis of 24 bovine-associated Staphylococcus isolates with special focus on the putative virulence genes [PDF]
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

The distribution of plasmids that carry virulence and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus is lineage associated. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Staphylococcus aureus is major human and animal pathogen. Plasmids often carry resistance genes and virulence genes that can disseminate through S. aureus populations by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) mechanisms. Sequences of S.

Detection of Some Virulence Factors in Staphylococci Isolated from Mastitic Cows and Ewes
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.

Major Families of Multiresistant Plasmids from Geographically and Epidemiologically Diverse Staphylococci [PDF]
Staphylococci are increasingly aggressive human pathogens suggesting that active evolution is spreading novel virulence and resistance phenotypes. Large staphylococcal plasmids commonly carry antibiotic resistances and virulence loci, but relatively few ...
