Presence of New<i>mecA</i>and<i>mph</i>(C) Variants Conferring Antibiotic Resistance in<i>Staphylococcus</i>spp. Isolated from the Skin of Horses before and after Clinic Admission

Because of the frequency of multiple antibiotic resistance, Staphylococcus species often represent a challenge in incisional infections of horses undergoing colic surgery. To investigate the evolution of antibiotic resistance patterns before and after preventative peri- and postoperative penicillin treatment, staphylococci were isolated from skin and wound samples at different times during hospitalization.
