The non-responsible use of antimicrobials (ATM) in human and veterinary medicine and animal production has been associated with increased antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worldwide. In dairy cattle, ATM therapy is the key strategy for treating infectious diseases, but the overuse of antimicrobials has been associated with increased AMR. To address this scientific and technological challenge…
Mastitis is the most prevalent disease in dairy herds that affects world dairy production. The main pathogens involved are: Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus sp., and Escherichia coli. In addition to these, many studies cite non-aureus staphylococci as agents of mastitis, but also as agents with a potential for preventing mastitis caused by other pathogens. Thus, the objective of this …
Mastitis in cattle is one of the diseases that most generates economic losses to the milk production chain due to reduced production, milk discard, premature slaughter, costs with veterinary treatment and alteration in milk quality. The study of microbial communities is in evidence and, currently, molecular methods have allowed a greater understanding of them. Staphylococcus spp. and Myco…

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are microorganisms commonly found in dairy products, cases of mastitis, and human infections. The increasing prevalence of resistant strains of this genus within the food chain has raised concerns regarding community transmission, underscoring the importance of One Health studies. This study aims to evaluate the inhibitory concentrations of cefo…
Many studies mention the non-aureus Staphylococci (NAS) as mastitis agents, but also as agents responsible for preventing mastitis by other pathogens. Thus, the objective of the work is to evaluate antimicrobial action of NAS against S. aureus isolated from mastitis. First, a screening will be conducted to verify if NAS strains inhibit the growth of the pathogens, then a survival curve wi…
Despite its low cost and nutritional advantages, peanuts are also of concern in relation to Foodborne Diseases, with reported Salmonella outbreaks. In addition, fungi of the Aspergillus species, responsible for developing mycotoxins called aflatoxins, have also been observed. These mycotoxins, when accumulated in the body, can lead to cancer and other diseases such as liver cirrhosis and …
The consumer demand for a reduction in the use of synthetic additives in food has been providing a greater search and incentive to the food industries so that new alternatives for food preservation are used. Among them, there is the initiative to use essential oils due to their antimicrobial properties, coming from specific compounds in their compositions. However, in view of limitations …

Mastitis causes economic losses due to reduced milk production, milk discard, premature slaughter, veterinary costs, and antibiotic usage. The genus Staphylococcus is divided in coagulase positive and coagulase negative groups and both are considered etiological agents that cause bovine mastitis. Nowadays, besides Staphylococcus aureus, coagulase-negative Staphylococci has special atten…
