High Genetic Similarity of MRSA ST88 Isolated From Pigs and Humans in Kogi State, Nigeria

17 Dec 2018

Abstract excerpt

We determined the prevalence and genetic characteristics of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolated from pigs and humans between September 2013 and February 2015 in Kogi State, a central region in Nigeria. A total of 680 nasal swabs were collected and analyzed from pigs (n=425) and ‘pig-contact’ humans (n=55) on 35 farms, and ‘non pig-contact’ humans (n=200). MRSA was recovered from 20 (4.7%)...
