Abstract excerpt
This study aimed to assess the genetic diversity and potential epidemiological overlap of Staphylococcus aureus using molecular (spa and SCCmec typing) and phenotypic characterization of 108 isolates obtained along the farm-to-fork continuum (dairy and meat chains) and 50 human clinical isolates. Forty-four spa types, including 17 novel patterns, were identified, with t11284 and t127 predominating among...
