Figure 1

HCA dendrogam of FTIR biotyping. FTIR spectroscopy was employed to follow S. aureus persistence and spreading at herd level. In total two different FTIR biotypes were identified (I, II). The HP/ST9 isolates persisted and successively spread within the herd and did not express CP phenotypically, as they were defined as non-typeable (NT), whereas the LP/ST504 isolates expressed CP serotype 8 (CP8).
