Resumo Visto como um dos principais problemas econômicos e sanitários nas propriedades brasileiras, a mastite bovina mostra-se como uma doença de grande prevalência dentre os animais de produção. Um dos principais gargalos referente a tal enfermidade é a resistência antimicrobiana, em especial, quando a etiologia está associada a bactéria Staphylococcus aureus. Nessa perspectiva, o presente trabalho tem por objetivo discorrer sobre o perfil de resistência de S. aureus e alguns fatores envolvidos. Para tal, os dados foram apresentados na forma de uma revisão narrativa da literatura, tendo como embasamento estudos indexados as plataformas: Portal de Periódicos CAPES-MEC e SciELO. Foi verificado na pesquisa bibliográfica um acentuado perfil de resistência antimicrobiana do S. aureus, sendo os antibióticos menos eficazes a Penicilina e Ampicilina e o de melhor eficácia no tratamento a Cefalotina. Outros dados compilados foram: o de que animais mais velhos possuem maior chance de apresentarem resistência aos tratamentos antimicrobianos e de que em algumas situações o custo-benefício do tratamento de mastite subclínica por S. aureus não traz retornos econômicos, mas somente na melhoria da qualidade do leite. Nesse contexto, ressalta-se a importância de novas pesquisas para traçar a evolução da resistência antimicrobiana do S. aureus, bem como fomentar atividades extencionistas para educação no campo sobre os corretos procedimentos terapêuticos da mastite bovina.
COVID-19 has brought numerous challenges for the dairy industry. This research aimed to analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Brazilian dairy cattle farming. The study was conducted from December 2020 to February 2021 via Google Forms® platform. Data obtained were tabulated and evaluated using descriptive and multivariate analysis, Shapiro-Wilk, Kruskall-Wallis, Variance Analysis (ANOVA), and Dunn’s post-hoc comparison. The study was approved by the Committee for Ethics in Research with Human. In total, 73 viable responses were obtained, with participations from the Brazilian regions Midwest, Northeast, South, and Southeast. Among the biosecurity measures adopted during the study, 86% of farm employees began to sanitize their hands more often to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. Use of masks during work was required all the time during work by employees in 17 properties (23%), although the use of masks was not required in 40 (55%) farms and 16 properties required them during part of the work (22%). Regarding milk production, 99% of the respondents had no problems with milk collection and more than half of the producers had difficulties in acquiring animals. Moreover, thirty-seven percent of the interviewees said they were unaware of how the virus was transmitted. Regarding the size of the dairy farms, small farms were more likely to have no veterinary medical care. The pandemic brought positive and negative impacts to dairy properties, which was influenced by the number of animals, the presence of veterinary care, and average daily milk production.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
