Fair. than animals they work with A recent study published in the Journal of Dairy Sci- ence® investigated staphylococcal populations respon- sible for causing mastitis in dairy cattle, one of the most costly diseases the industry faces. Use of antibi- otics in treating this disease has been one of the many claims that agriculture is contributing to the rise in an- tibiotic-resistant bacteria. The study found, however, that the humans working with the cows carried more antibiotic-resistant staphylococci than did the animals with which they worked. The levels of bovine staphylo- cocci were relatively low. “As an industry we are making great strides to re- duce the use of blanket treatment of farm animals with antibiotics and the notion that antibiotic-resistant bac- teria are moving from farm animals to humans has been debunked many times,” observed Matt Lucy, Ph.D., professor of Animal Science at the University of Missouri. “What the authors found is that the humans working with farm animals carry far more antibiotic-re- sistant staphylococci than the farm animals they work with. The risk, therefore, is the transfer from humans to farm animals and not from farm animals to humans as is often suggested.” To read more about the study, visit http://tinyurl. com/JDS-9-4-15.
