“…While coagulase-positive S. aureus (CPS) is often the subject of research because it is the predominant isolate in bovine mastitis milk [43], CNS strains both belonging to the S. aureus species and other species of the Staphylococcus genus (generally considered non-pathogenic) are of less interest to researchers. These bacteria, generally considered non-pathogenic, constitute a reservoir and a vector for transferring antibiotic resistance genes to subsequent populations of microorganisms.…”

The prevalence of staphylococci in the environment of humans, including food, may lead to the production of toxins and food poisoning in consumers. Additionally, staphylococci constitute a reservoir of genes determining antibiotic resistance. The study aimed to compare the antibiotic resistance and biofilm-forming ability of staphylococci isolated from bulk tank milk and assess the occurrence of animal-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The study consisted of isolation of strains from cow milk, confirming their belonging to Staphylococcus sp. and S. aureus, investigation of the presence of a gene determining the production of coagulase, and genes determining resistance to β-lactams, tetracyclines, vancomycin, natural penicillins, and aminopenicillins, as well as virulence genes determining biofilm production. There were 56 bacterial strains isolated, which belong to Staphylococcus spp. All isolates showed resistance to amoxicillin, erythromycin, and tetracycline. The lowest resistance was demonstrated for vancomycin (48.2%). The mecA gene was not detected in any of the isolates and there was no positive reaction to the PB2 protein, which indicates that none of the isolated strains was methicillin resistant. Only 26.8% of isolated strains did not show the ability to produce biofilm. Special attention should be paid to the health of dairy cows and the supervision of the use of antibiotics in the dairy herd environment because, even in milk from healthy cows, there is a real risk of the occurrence of multi-drug resistant bacteria.

“…There is a current emerging trend in the discovery of ARB and ARGs in milk, milk products, and dairy environments [ 105 ]. Many ARGs have also been found in bovine milk and the related environment and production facilities [ 106 ]. Different metagenomics tools have been used to study livestock and agricultural environments, and some of these studies have shown that the dairy environment has served as a source of ARGs in dairy products from dairy production plants [ 107 ].…”

Background: The interdisciplinary One Health (OH) approach recognizes that human, animal, and environmental health are all interconnected. Its ultimate goal is to promote optimal health for all through the exploration of these relationships. Antibiotic resistance (AR) is a public health challenge that has been primarily addressed within the context of human health and clinical settings. However, it has become increasingly evident that antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB) and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) that confer resistance are transmitted and circulated within humans, animals, and the environment. Therefore, to effectively address this issue, antibiotic resistance must also be considered an environmental and livestock/wildlife problem. Objective: This review was carried out to provide a broad overview of the existence of ARB and ARGs in One Health settings. Methods: Relevant studies that placed emphasis on ARB and ARGs were reviewed and key findings were accessed that illustrate the importance of One Health as a measure to tackle growing public and environmental threats. Results: In this review, we delve into the complex interplay of the three components of OH in relation to ARB and ARGs. Antibiotics used in animal husbandry and plants to promote growth, treat, and prevent infectious diseases lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in animals. These bacteria are transmitted from animals to humans through food and environmental exposure. The environment plays a critical role in the circulation and persistence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes, posing a significant threat to human and animal health. This article also highlights how ARGs are spread in the environment through the transfer of genetic material between bacteria. This transfer can occur naturally or through human activities such as the use of antibiotics in agriculture and waste management practices. Conclusion: It is important to integrate the One Health approach into the public health system to effectively tackle the emergence and spread of ARB and genes that code for resistance to different antibiotics.
