After Completing the Disinfection Activities

Caption

After completing the disinfection activities, the stable was MRSA- and ESBL-free. However, after only two days, a new MRSA strain was detected. Nevertheless, the ESBL bacteria were eliminated successfully, and the farm has remained ESBL-free two years after decontamination.
