- Researchers collected 318 nasal and rectal swabs from 159 healthy camels in Tunisia, finding a high carriage rate of Staphylococcus aureus, with 81% of swabs testing positive.
- Among the isolates, 16 were identified as coagulase positive, and all were methicillin-susceptible, with three different genetic types and various virulence genes detected.
- This study represents the first comprehensive genotyping and characterization of S. aureus in camels from Tunisia, contributing to understanding the pathogen’s population structure and toxin genetics.
