Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius in Rats
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2013 To the Editor: Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a coagulase-positive species in the S. intermedius group. Previously misidentified as S. intermedius, S. pseudintermedius is now recognized as a leading cause of opportunistic infection in dogs (1) and a cause of sporadic infections in other species, including humans (1,2).

Expression and function of protein A in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius [PDF]
Virulence, 2018 Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is an opportunistic pathogen in dogs and the most frequent cause of canine pyoderma. Protein A, a potent virulence factor in S. aureus is encoded by the spa gene. S. pseudintermedius possesses genes seemingly analogous to spa, but the expression and the characteristics of their products have not been directly determined.

Prevalence of Mupirocin Resistance in Staphylococcus pseudintermedius [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2014 ABSTRACT In the United States, veterinary use of mupirocin is primarily limited to the treatment of canine pyoderma caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus pseudintermedius (MRSP). In this study, only 1 of 581 S. pseudintermedius isolates tested was resistant to mupirocin and

A spinal infection withStaphylococcus pseudintermedius [PDF]
BMJ Case Reports, 2017 We present a case of a 60-year-old woman with an invasive spinal infection withStaphylococcus pseudintermediusassociated with a 15-year-old spinal fixation device and epidemiological contact with dogs. It was confirmed on blood culture and culture from pus from the epidural abscess and successfully treated using similar treatment as for aStaphylococcus
