Article Synopsis
- Staphylococcus aureus is a major cause of bovine mastitis, posing significant challenges in control due to its complex ability to persist in the mammary gland and cause health issues and economic losses.
- Researchers evaluated Galleria mellonella larvae as a model for studying the virulence of various S. aureus strains isolated from bovine mastitis and found that this model effectively highlighted differences in pathogenicity among the strains.
- The study determined that certain S. aureus strains (16S-717, 19C-828, and 31S-1443) exhibited high virulence, making G. mellonella a promising, cost-effective model for further research aimed at developing strategies to control bovine mastitis.
