摘要: Summary The susceptibility of S. aureus strains isolated from milk and human handlers in dairy farms Trinidad to bacteriophages was determined. Of the 110 bulk milk, 73 (66.4%) were typable either at routine test dilution (RTD) or 100-RDT compared 108 (72.5 %) 149 composite sensitive but difference not statistically significant (P ≥ 0.05; X2). Strains had significantly ≤ X2) lower sensitivity, with only 90 (59.6%) 151 typable. Phages various groups predominantly more active on both isolates, 54.1 % (98 181) strains, 73.3% (66 90). Phage 42D alone lysed 22 (12.2%) other phages typed (49.7%) 181 a lytic activity 1.1 (1 90) 35 (38.9 for handlers. The differences however Relatedness each farm demonstrated 21 (46.7 45 using phage patterns detected. Similarly, relatedness anterior nares hands milker detected 10 (35.7 28 studied. It concluded that milkers contaminated studied while bovine also acquired by humans during milking.
