耐甲氧西林金黄色葡萄球菌序列型398（ST 398 MRSA）在荷兰猪和养猪户中被鉴定。ST 398甲氧西林敏感S.金黄色葡萄球菌以低频率（0.2%）在人类中传播，但在3例菌血症人类病例中分离（2.1%; p = 0.026）。虽然其天然宿主可能是猪，但ST 398 MRSA可能会导致人类感染。
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus sequence type 398 (ST398 MRSA) was identified in Dutch pigs and pig farmers. ST398 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus circulates among humans at low frequency (0.2%) but was isolated in 3 human cases of bacteremia (2.1%; p = 0.026). Although its natural host is probably porcine, ST398 MRSA likely causes infections in humans.
