Assessment of Antibiotic Susceptibility within Lactic Acid Bacteria and Coagulase-Negative Staphylococci Isolated from Hunan Smoked Pork, a Naturally Fermented Meat Product in China.

We evaluated the antibiotic resistance of lactic acid bacteria and coagulase-negative staphylococci strains isolated from Chinese naturally fermented smoked pork. Our results may provide important data on establishing breakpoint standards for LAB and CNS and evaluating the safety risk of these strains for commercial use.
