    Detection and Characterization of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus in Dairy Cows and Farm Workers
    Author(s): Filip Boyen*

    Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) is an important human pathogen that can also be found in animals, including dairy cows and farm workers. This study aimed to detect and characterize MRSA in dairy cows and farm workers in order to better understand the prevalence and genetic characteristics of this pathogen in these populations. Nasal swabs and milk samples were collected from dairy cows, and nasal swabs were collected from farm workers. MRSA was detected using molecular methods, and the genetic characteristics and antibiotic resistance profiles of the MRSA strains were determined. The results of the study showed a significant prevalence of MRSA in both dairy cows and farm workers, with several different genetic types of MRSA identified. The MRSA strains isolated from the study population also exhibited resistance to multiple antibioti.. Read More»
