Major Families of Multiresistant Plasmids from Geographically and Epidemiologically Diverse Staphylococci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
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 ...

The mutability of staphyloccal biofilms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In their natural environment, bacteria are often found as sessile populations, known as biofilms, typified by surface adherence and extracellular matrix production.

Coagulase-negative staphylococci in bovine sub-clinical mastitis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Mastitis is a common disease in dairy cows. The majority of the cases are sub-clinical, and many of those are due to infection with coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS). CNS is a heterogeneous group of bacteria consisting of a large number of different

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

open access: yesFolia 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.

Comparative host specificity of human- and pig- associated Staphylococcus aureus clonal lineages. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Bacterial adhesion is a crucial step in colonization of the skin. In this study, we investigated the differential adherence to human and pig corneocytes of six Staphylococcus aureus strains belonging to three human-associated [ST8 (CC8), ST22 (CC22) and ...

The distribution of plasmids that carry virulence and resistance genes in Staphylococcus aureus is lineage associated. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

Species and drug susceptibility profiles of staphylococci isolated from healthy children in Eastern Uganda.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Staphylococci are a key component of the human microbiota, and they mainly colonize the skin and anterior nares. However, they can cause infection in hospitalized patients and healthy individuals in the community.

Subclinical bovine mastitis associated with Staphylococcus spp. in eleven Uruguayan dairy farms

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2022
Introduction: Bovine mastitis is the most common disease affecting the dairy industry, with staphylococci being considered as one of the most significant and prevalent causes.

Distribution of non-aureus staphylococci from quarter milk, teat apices, and rectal feces of dairy cows, and their virulence potential [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2020
Non-aureus staphylococci (NAS) are predominantly isolated from bovine milk samples of quarters suffering from subclinical mastitis. They are also abundantly present on dairy cows' teat apices and can be recovered from bovine fecal samples, as recently described.

Staphylococcal mastitis in dairy cows

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science
Bovine mastitis is one of the most common diseases of dairy cattle. Even though different infectious microorganisms and mechanical injury can cause mastitis, bacteria are the most common cause of mastitis in dairy cows.
