N2 - Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important agent causing infections in humans and animals. Due to limited options of treatment, MRSA infections turn out to be a high risk to human and animal health because strains exhibit resistances to ß-lactam antibiotics and other groups of antimicrobials. Several reports indicate that companion animals provide a reservoir for MRSA of human origin and transmission of these pathogens can contribute to others. Recently, a new MRSA clone, the so-called livestock-associated MRSA (laMRSA) ST398, with a high potential of transmission to humans in contact with infected animals, has gained importance. Comprehensive data about the prevalence of ST398 are available in pigs. At all stages of production high prevalence of this clone has been found by various studies. Published data describe that ST398 also occurs in dairy cattle. The present literature review is to provide an overview of the MRSA prevalence in raw milk and dairy products.
