Abstract

Totally, 47 strains of S. aureus and 578 coagulase negative staphylococci were detected in samples from raw ewe milk. The 35 out 47 isolates of S. aureus from ewe milk were positive for the presence of staphylococcal enterotoxin genes: sea(4 %), sec (48 %) a sed (48 %). Staphylococcus epidermis (33.04%), Staphylococcus caprae (21.28%) were more prevalent. Staphylococcus chromogenes (7.44 %), Staphylococcus hominis (7.09%), Staphylococcus xylosus (6,92 %), a Staphylococcus warneri (6.40 %) were isolated also in ewes milk. Staphylococcus haemolyticus (3.11 %), Staphylococcus capitis (2.94 %), Staphylococcus simulans (2.08 %) and Staphylococcus saprophyticus (1.73 %) were isolated very rarely from the taken individual milk ewe samples. Sporadically, only in few cases, the others coagulase negative staphylococci were isolated (< 1 %): Staphylococcus cohnii cohniiStaphylococcus sciuriStaphylococcus closiiStaphylococcus lugdunensisStaphylococcus auricularis and Staphylococcus equorum.
