“…Results of antibiotic susceptibility showed sensitive to Gentamicin, ciprofloxacin, sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim and cephalothin while resistance to erythromycin, tetracycline, ampicillin and penicillin (Table 1). These results are almost in agreement to recent studies (Habib et al, 2015).…”

| This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of pomegranate peel extract on serum glucose, creatinine, serum uric acid and serum total protein in normal and Staphylococcus aureus infected mice. Thirty seven milk samples were collected from Al-Kut city from cows suffering acute mastitis. After biochemical tests and API Staph System it was revealed that 19 out of 37 milk samples contained S. aureus. Ethanolic extract of pomegranate peels was prepared and the highest in vitro antibacterial effect was observed by 300mg/mL against S. aureus with 30.00 ± 0.57 mm of the diameter zone. Thirty lactating mice were divided into three groups. Group (1): negative control (Normal). Group (2): positive control, mice were infected by intramammary injection of S. aureus at 7, 15, 21 and 30 days and left untreated. Group (3): mice infected with intramammary injection of S. aureus and treated orally with 300 mg/kg BW of ethanolic extract of pomegranate peel after 48 h of infection for 15, 21 and 30 days. At the end of experiment, blood samples were taken from anaesthetized mice then the mice were killed for histopathological examination and measured the following: serum glucose, creatinine, serum uric acid and serum total proteins. Results showed significant increase (P <0.05) in the levels of serum glucose, creatinine, serum uric acid and serum total proteins in positive control mice as compared with negative control while pomegranate peel treated group showed a significant (P <0.05) decrease in the levels of serum glucose, creatinine, serum uric acid and serum total proteins. Histological section in mammary gland showed clear pathological effects of S. aureus as compared with those treated with pomegranate peel extracts.

“…The spread plate method was used to isolate and count Staphylococcus species grown on Salt Mannitol Agar [ 26 ]. Dilutions of the sample, ranging from 10 −1 to 10 −4 , by mixing 10 g of the sample with 90 ml of sterilized peptone water and pulsifying for 15 s. 1 ml portion from each dilution was dispensed onto Petri dishes filled with prepared Salt Mannitol Agar (SMA).…”

Background Foodborne diseases affect nearly 600 million people each year, that is, one in every ten people, and their outbreaks are most common in low- and middle-income countries, particularly in Africa. This study investigated the food safety practices among raw meat handlers and the microbial quality of the meat from the butchery shops in Kumasi Abattoir, Ghana. Methods This study employed a descriptive cross-sectional study and collected quantitative data on factors associated with food safety and hygienic practices among raw meat handlers and the microbial quality of the raw meat using a structured questionnaire and standard laboratory methods, respectively. The study used all 50 beef vending shops in the butchery for questionnaire aspect and fresh beef samples were obtained from 10 vendors in the butchery shop. Appropriate methods were followed to analyse questionnaire data and meat samples. Results Most of the butchers (72%) were between the ages of 31 and 45, and they were predominantly Muslims (68%). Most of the respondents (48%) had basic education. All the respondents had food safety certificates from the local authority but needed adequate knowledge of meat safety. Most respondents (90%) handled meat and money with the same bare hands, thus contaminating the meat. The study showed that the maximum Total Viable Count (TVC), Total Staphylococcus Count (TSC), and Total Escherichia coli Count (TEC) were 5.60, 4.39 and 5.13 cfu/g, respectively. The study also revealed that all the meat samples were Salmonella species-free. Conclusions Microorganisms in raw beef indicate a public health hazard. It gives a signal of a possible occurrence of food-borne intoxication and infection if not controlled. Environmental health officers in the Greater Kumasi area should organize food safety training and educate raw meat handlers on the importance of food safety and its consequences.

“…Our previous study have reported the multidrug resistant Staphylococcus aureus as a causative agent of septic arthritis in poultry birds (Nazia et al, 2015). A recent study has demonstrated the host-related differences in susceptibility levels of Staphylococcus aureus isolates from different farm animals, thus indicated a host-microbe interaction and probable role of host in development of antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus organisms (Habib et al, 2015).…”
