Phenotypic and genotypic characterization of coagulase negative Staphylococcus species isolated from mastitic cattle

Master Abstract

Bacteriological examination of 364 quarter milk samples from a total of 253 cows reacted positive with California mastitis test was done for isolation and identification of CNS causing bovine subclinical mastitis cases. A total of 213 staphylococcus isolates were recovered then by using coagulase test it's found that 95 isolates were coagulase negative in a prevalence of 26.09%. Using api® staph kits to further identify the recovered CNS isolates revealed that S. xylosus (36.48%), S. chromogenes (12.63%), S. epidermidis (10.53%), S. saprophyticus (8.42%) and then S. haemolyticus (7.38%) were the most predominant among a total of 13 Staphylococcus species were identified. The in vitro susceptibility test using disk diffusion method against 14 antimicrobial agents revealed that 100% of the CNS were sensitive to Imipenem, while the majority of isolates were sensitive to Ciprofloxacin (96.84%), Oflxacin (92.63%), Vancomycin (85.26%), Chloramphenicol (85.26%), amoxycillin-clavulanic acid (83.16%) and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (80%). While, 95.79% were resistant to ampicillin, 77.9% to cefoxitin, 35.79% to cefuroxime, 31.58% to amoxycillin and 18.95% were resistant to clindamycin. Multidrug resistance (MDR) was detected in 60% (n=57) of isolates, methicillin resistance (MR) was identified in 77.9% (n=74) and vancomycin resistance was detected in 9.47% (n=9) of isolates. Using PCR for detection of 5 resistance genes among selected MDR isolates revealed existence of kan gene in 30%, blaZ in 50% and in 70% in case of mecA, ermC and tetK genes. Antimicrobial effect of 2 essential oils; cinnamon and carvacrol was studied on MDR isolates and it's was found that cinnamon oil (0.1% concentration) inhibited 62.5% of tested isolates, whereas carvacrol (0.1% concentration) was totally inhibitory to all tested isolates, while 0.01% and 0.001% concentrations of the 2 oils were of no inhibitory effect at all. Biofilm (Slime) formation capacities, a very important virulence marker in Staphylococcus species, was assessed phenotypically on Congo red agar plates in recovered CNS and it was detected in 47.4%. Using PCR to assess 2 biofilm genes; icaD and bap in 10 random MDR showed a prevalence of 10% for each gene.
