Description
Diaz-Formoso and coauthors test staph germs from wild hake fish for drug resistance. Loose antibiotic use has spread drug-proof germs widely. Such germs in seafood pose a health risk to buyers. The team took germs from eight hakes in the northeast Atlantic.
They found 27 staph germs that lack one clotting trait. Six species were named, led by one common skin type. Film growth on surfaces was tested in lab trays. Drug tests showed which drugs still halt each germ. Gene checks hunted resistance and virulence traits. Fish may carry proof germs to the food chain.
