Abstract
In total, 63 S. aureus strains from mastitis milk samples of different anim als in 57 farms were isolated. In 14 (22%) of the S. aureus strains resistancies against one or several of the examined antibiotics could be observed whereby six resistance patterns were found. 14.3% of the strains were penicillin resistant. 34 (54%) of the 63 S. aureus produced enterotoxins (SE). Three strains form ed SEA, 21 SEC, three SED and seven strains 2 SE, SEAC, SEAD or SEBD.
