An Investigation of Virulence Genes of Staphylococcus aureus in Autologous Vaccines Against Sheep Mastitis
6 Nov 2024
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is well known to be the primary causal agent of clinical or subclinical mastitis in dairy sheep. The production of virulence factors allows S. aureus strains to cause mastitis. In the present study, 96 strains isolated from dairy sheep farms used for the production of autologous vaccines were tested for enterotoxin and hemolysin genes by PCR. In addition, 14 strains isolated from half udders...
