Implication

Cross-sectional study shows high prevalence and antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus from dairy farms in Punjab, indicating urgent need for AMR surveillance.

Key Points

To assess the prevalence, antimicrobial resistance profiles, and biofilm production of Staphylococcus aureus in dairy farms.
Cross-sectional study conducted across 405 dairy farms in Punjab, India.
Samples included pooled bovine milk, animal handler hand swabs, and herd slurry.
Used a One Health approach to assess antimicrobial resistance and biofilm-forming capacity.
Prevalence of coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus was highest in hand swabs (43.7%).
High levels of multidrug resistance were found, with 45.9% in milk and 92.9% in slurry isolates.
94.9% of isolates formed biofilms, with a notable strong biofilm production in MDR milk isolates (39.3%).
