Identification and prevalence of an enterotoxin-related gene, se-int, in Staphylococcus intermedius isolates from dogs and pigeons.

Abstract:

AIMS:To determine the prevalence of enterotoxin-producing Staphylococcus intermedius in dogs and pigeons. METHODS AND RESULTS:A total of 106 S. intermedius isolates from 44 dogs and 62 pigeons were tested for the production of enterotoxins A, B, C and D by reverse passive latex agglutination (RPLA) and for sec-canine by PCR. Only one isolate from dog was positive for SEC and sec-canine. Screening of sec-canine-negative strains by nested PCR led to the identification of a novel enterotoxin-related gene, se-int. SE-int showed a significant homology (59-61% identity) with SEC and (56.6% identity) SEB. All 44 isolates from dogs and five isolates (8.1%) from pigeons were se-int positive. CONCLUSIONS:While S. intermedius was isolated more frequently from pigeons than from dogs, se-int was more prevalent among the S. intermedius isolates from dogs, compared with the pigeon isolates. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY:Further characterization of the se-int-positive S. intermedius strains should clarify their pathogenic potential including enterotoxigenicity and zoonotic transmissibility to human beings.
