Abstract

Serotypes 5 and 8 accounted for only 41% of S aureus isolates from US milk samples, but accounted for 70% of isolates from European milk samples. Addition of the newly developed serotyping antiserum 336 to the typing scheme accounted for 100% of US samples and 98% of European samples and will enable development of a more comprehensive S aureus vaccine.
