Prevalence of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
In the Netherlands, meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is detected on pork and veal farms, and hence farmers working with MRSA-positive animals are at an increased risk of being colonised. Recently retail meat products have been found positive for MRSA. Therefore, we tested the prevalence of MRSA among employees who work in the cold meat processing industry and in institutional k...
متن کاملCommunity-associated meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is endemic in hospitals worldwide, and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Health-care-associated MRSA infections arise in individuals with predisposing risk factors, such as surgery or presence of an indwelling medical device. By contrast, many community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) infections arise in otherwise healthy individuals who do ...

Meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in a harbour seal (Phoca vitulina).
METICILLIN-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important zoonosis that has increased in prevalence over the past decade, with up to 2 per cent of human beings acting as carriers, posing a risk to incontact animals (Tattevin and others 2009, Loeffler and Lloyd 2010, Couto and others 2011). Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis has been used to separate MRSA strains into community-associated ...
متن کاملMeticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus in animals: a review.
The objectives of this paper are to review published data on the prevalence and epidemiology of meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection and colonization in animals and to provide suggestions for preventing and controlling the problem in veterinary practice. MRSA first emerged as a serious pathogen in human medicine during the late 1970s and has been increasingly reported in ...
