Exudative epidermitis (EE) is a common skin disease of young pigs, caused mainly by Staphylococcus hyicus. Increased prevalence of EE and poor response to treatment are reported. Common strategies used by Ontario pork producers to treat pigs with EE were determined using a survey. Injection of penicillin G was reported as the most common parenteral antibiotic choice. Antimicrobial resistance patterns of S. hyicus and Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical cases (30 herds with samples from approximately 6 pigs per farm) showed that 97% of S. hyicus isolates were resistant to penicillin G and ampicillin; 71% of these isolates were resistant to ceftiofur. Similar resistance was noted among S. aureus isolates. Antimicrobial resistance has become a problem in the treatment of EE in Ontario.
渗出性皮炎(EE)是仔猪常见的一种皮肤病,主要由猪葡萄球菌引起。据报道,EE的发病率有所上升,且治疗效果不佳。通过一项调查确定了安大略省猪肉生产商治疗患EE仔猪常用的策略。据报道,注射青霉素G是最常用的注射用抗生素选择。从临床病例(30个猪群,每个猪场约6头猪的样本)分离出的猪葡萄球菌和金黄色葡萄球菌的抗菌耐药模式表明,97%的猪葡萄球菌分离株对青霉素G和氨苄青霉素耐药;其中71%的分离株对头孢噻呋耐药。在金黄色葡萄球菌分离株中也发现了类似的耐药情况。抗菌耐药性已成为安大略省治疗EE的一个问题。
