First Report of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus ST5 and ST398 from Purebred Lusitano Horses

2012-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was first described in horses in 1996. The frequency of MRSA colonization in horses varies among European countries, but it is unknown in Portugal. The aim of this study was to screen for MRSA nasal carriage in a sample of horses entering the Equine Unit, Large Animal Veterinary Teaching Hospital of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Lisbon, Portugal. Seventy-one...
