Antimicrobial Resistance of Staphylococcus borealis Isolated from Pig Farms: High Prevalence of SCCmec Type V and Emergence of cfr-Positive Isolates
To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to describe the AMR characteristics of livestock-associated <i>S. borealis</i> isolates, particularly the high prevalence of SCC<i>mec</i> V and <i>cfr</i>. Collectively, these results suggest that <i>S. borealis</i> is a crucial reservoir of AMR genes on pig farms in Korea.
