Characterisation of Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus aureus – like strains isolated from table eggs

Abstract: The aim of the study was to provide a detailed phenotypic and genotypic characterisation of Staphylococcus aureus strains and the group of microorganisms with unusual biochemical patterns (called Staphylococcus aureus-like) isolated from table chicken eggs. All of the strains tested exhibited resistance to at least one of the 17 antibiotics tested, and 55.55% of isolates were found to be resistant to five or more of them. PCR used for detection of the methicillin resistance gene (mecA) confirmed the presence o… Show more

“…Out of 300 eggs, 58 (19.33%) eggshells yielded growth of Staphylococcus spp., which was supported by Syed et al [17] in Pakistan, who reported 21.3% prevalence of Staphylococcus spp. However, the prevalence found in our study was comparatively higher than the findings of Parveen et al [18], Eid et al [19], Chaemsanit et al [20], Pyzik et al [21], and Pyzik and Marek [22] who observed the prevalence was 5.5%, 14.5%, 18%, 7.61%, and 15.6% in Dinajpur (Bangladesh), Sharkia (Egypt), Thailand, and Lubin city, respectively. The prevalence of Staphylococcus spp .…”
