Molecular basis of virulence in Staphylococcus aureus mastitis

Published inPloS one, vol. 6, no. 11, e27354
Publication date2011
Abstract

S. aureus is one of the main pathogens involved in ruminant mastitis worldwide. The severity of staphylococcal infection is highly variable, ranging from subclinical to gangrenous mastitis. This work represents an in-depth characterization of S. aureus mastitis isolates to identify bacterial factors involved in severity of mastitis infection.
