Molecular characterization and antimicrobial-resistance gene profile of Staphylococcus aureus strains isolated from ovine mastitis in Jordan
The study highlights <i>spa</i> type <i>t1534</i> as the dominant genotype in ovine mastitis in Jordan and underscores the low zoonotic transmission risk from ovines to animal handlers. The findings emphasize the importance of antimicrobial stewardship and enhanced mastitis management strategies.
