Editor’s summary
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in animals is a rare finding in Sweden. In horses, MRSA was first detected in a screening survey in 2007.
In 2008, six clinical cases occurred in an equine hospital, indicating an outbreak.Association in time and space of six horses infected with an identical MRSA strain of spa-type t011 confirmed an outbreak. Two isolates found in 2009 and 2010 in the outbreak hospital were closely related to the outbreak strain, indicating one circulating strain. Both spa-type t011 and t064 have been reported in horses in Europe prior to these findings. The observation that the infections cleared although antimicrobials were not used is encouraging for future prudent use of antimicrobials. The time from surgery to bacteriological diagnosis was not acceptable in most cases, as contagious spread was a risk. Sampling when symptoms of infection are noticed and accurate analysis are thus important.

Editor’s summary
A paper demonstrating that burning plants releases repellent volatiles that are repellent to mosquitoes. It also introduces a slight modification to the membrane method of testing mosquito repellents, which should be further pursued.

Editor’s summary
Traditionally, the Ocimum genus is widely used across Africa in protection against mosquito bites. We identified through GC-EAD, GC-MS and landing assays the repellent compounds from flowering Ocimum forskolei, used in Eritrea to repel mosquitoes. The active compounds included (R)-(-)-linalool, methyl salicylate, and methyl cinnamate, the latter two being newly described repellents. Image: Flowering O. forskolei. (photo M.Ghebru.)
