Methicillin-Resistant and -Susceptible<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>Sequence Type 398 in Pigs and Humans

1 Mar 2008

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sequence type 398 (ST398 MRSA) was identified in Dutch pigs and pig farmers. ST398 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus circulates among humans at low frequency (0.2%) but was isolated in 3 human cases of bacteremia (2.1%; p = 0.026). Although its natural host is probably porcine, ST398 MRSA likely causes infections in humans.
