Characterization of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> Isolated from Bovine Mastitis in Northern Jiangsu Province and Correlation to Drug Resistance and Biofilm Formability.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to provide experimental support for the prevention and treatment of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infections and to elucidate the epidemiological distribution of resistance and virulence genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from mastitis in dairy cows in the northern part of Jiangsu Province and their relationship with the biofilm-forming ability of the strains. Mastitis presents a significant challenge within dairy farming, adversely impacting the health of dairy cows and precipitating substantial economic losses in milk production. In this study, Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) was isolated and identified from mastitis milk samples in Jiangsu Province, China. In order to characterize the isolates, multilocus sequence typing (MLST), drug resistance phenotypes,
