Abstract<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n

Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus <\/em>(MRSA) is of great public health concern having become resistant to most commonly used antibiotics. They are associated with institutions such as hospitals, but are now increasingly becoming prevalent in community-acquired\u00a0 infections.<\/p>\n

The occurrence of MRSA in horses and horse handlers in Kaduna and Zaria, Nigeria was\u00a0 studied. Nasal swabs from 240 horses and 65 horse handlers were collected through a one-stage cluster sampling and analysed using standard microbiological tests and genotyping methods.<\/p>\n

Structured questionnaires were also administered to 65 horse handlers to assess for risk factors associated with MRSA colonisation. MRSA were found in 10% (24\/240) and 6.2% (4\/65) of the nasal swab samples collected from the horses and horse handlers respectively.<\/p>\n

Of the 44 S. aureus <\/em>isolates tested for antibiotic susceptibility, 54.6% (24\/44) were resistant to penicillin and oxacillin, 47.7% (21\/44) to erythromycin, 34.1% (15\/44) to tetracycline, 22.7% (10\/44) to amikacin and gentamicin, 6.8% (3\/44) to sulphamethoxazole+trimethoprim, 2.3% (1\/44) to ciprofloxacin, and 2.3% (1\/44) were resistant to chloramphenicol.<\/p>\n

Multidrug Resistance was found in 74.8% (21\/28) of the MRSA isolates. SCCmec <\/em>types I, III, and IV were found in both the horses and the horse handlers while only one horse was found to carry SCCmec <\/em>V.<\/p>\n

Introduction<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

Staphylococcus<\/em>; meaning t<\/strong>he “golden grape-cluster berry,” and also known as “golden staph” and Oro staphira<\/em>) is a facultative anaerobic Gram-positive cocci bacterium.<\/p>\n

It is frequently part of the skin flora found in the nose and on skin, and in this manner about 20% of the humans are long-term carriers of Staphylococcus<\/em>. (Kluytmans et al., <\/em>1997).<\/p>\n

Staphylococcus aureus <\/em>can cause a range of illnesses from minor skin infections, such as pimples, impetigo, boils (furuncles), cellulitis, folliculitis, carbuncles, scalded skin syndrome, and abscesses, to life-threatening diseases such as pneumonia, meningitis, osteomyelitis, endocarditis, toxic shock syndrome (TSS), bacteremia, and sepsis.<\/p>\n

It is still one of the five most common causes of nosocomial infections, often causing postsurgical wound infections. Each year, some 500,000 patients in American hospitals contract a staphylococcal infection. (National Institute of Health, United States, 2007).<\/p>\n
