          Abstract

          We evaluated a widely used culture-based method for detection of livestock-associated meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) in samples collected from pigs and the environment inside pig stables in Denmark and Norway. Selective enrichment in tryptic soy broth containing cefoxitin and aztreonam led to a high ratio of false-negative results (26%; 57/221). On this basis, we recommend reconsidering the use of selective enrichment for detection of LA-MRSA in animal and environmental samples.

          Livestock-associated Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Humans, Europe

          Brigitte van Cleef, Dominique L Monnet, Andreas Voss … (2011)
          To estimate the proportion of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) isolates from humans that were sequence type (ST) 398, we surveyed 24 laboratories in 17 countries in Europe in 2007. Livestock-associated MRSA ST398 accounted for only a small proportion of MRSA isolates from humans; most were from the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, and Austria.

              Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus CC398 in Humans and Pigs in Norway: A “One Health” Perspective on Introduction and Transmission

              Carl Grøntvedt, Petter Elstrøm, Marc Stegger … (2016)
              This study provides strong, novel evidence that humans may introduce methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus CC398 into closed pig populations; it also demonstrates that stringent control and eradication measures were effective and prevented dissemination from pig farms to the general human population.
