Differential Analysis of Longitudinal Methicillin-Resistant <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content> Colonization in Relation to Microbial Shifts in the Nasal Microbiome of Neonatal Piglets

ABSTRACT Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is an important human pathogen and often colonizes pigs. To lower the risk of MRSA transmission to humans, a reduction of MRSA prevalence and/or load in pig farms is needed. The nasal microbiome contains commensal species that may protect a...
