Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to identify the Staphylococcus aureus clonal types currently circulating in animals, humans in contact with animals and the environment in Portugal based on genetic relatedness, virulence potential and antimicrobial/biocide susceptibility. METHODS: Seventy-four S. aureus isolates from pets, livestock, the environment and humans in contact with animals were characterized...
