Isolation and Characterization of Staphylococcus aureus from Raw Cow's Milk and Investigating the Effect of Bifidobacterium bifidum Probiotic Cell Free Supernatant on Their Enterotoxins Genes Expression.

The present reserach aimed to detect and isolate the genes involved in the staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) production in strains isolated from unprocessed cow's milk and to examine the impact of probiotic cell-free supernatant (CFS) on their expression. Standard techniques were used for isolation and identification of Staphylococci strains in unprocessed milk. The PCR was used to identify strains carrying enterotoxin genes.
