Antibiotic resistance and genetic diversity in Staphylococcus aureus from slaughter pigs in Switzerland.

Schweizer Archiv fur Tierheilkunde - 1 Sept 2009

Riesen A, Perreten V

Abstract excerpt

Nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus was evaluated in pigs at slaughterhouse. The nasal cavities of 304 pigs from 54 herds were screened. Eighty-nine percent of the farms harbored pigs that were colonized with S. aureus. Among them, no MRSA were found, indicating a low prevalence. However, pigs were found to harbor S. aureus, which displayed resistance to penicillin (blaZ) (62.5%), tetracycline [tet(M)]...
