五分一荷蘭豬肉含抗藥性金黃葡萄球菌

五分一荷蘭豬肉(2007年6月26日)
含抗藥性金黃葡萄球菌
Resistant Staphylococcus aureus

【明報專訊】英國《每日電訊報》報道,荷蘭豬肉產品被發現有多達五分之一含有抗藥性金黃葡萄球菌(MRSA),近半荷蘭豬農亦是帶菌者。當地環保組織關注農夫濫用抗生素為豬治療或預防疾病,可能是導致MRSA充斥豬群的原因,擔心MRSA這種超級惡菌可能隨肉類製品進入當地超市及影響市民。

British "Daily Telegraph" reported that Dutch pork products have been found to contain as many as one-fifth of drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Nearly half of the Dutch pig farmers also are carriers. Local environmental organizations concerned about the abuse of antibiotics as a farmer pig treatment, or prevention of disease, MRSA is likely to lead to the full Pig, MRSA super worried about this evil bacteria might as meat products into the local supermarkets and its impact on the public.

MRSA近年在歐洲備受關注,雖然近期在荷蘭、丹麥、比利時及德國等國的肉類發現的MRSA屬另一品種,但環保組織Soil Association憂慮它同樣有傳染力及可以奪命,因為這種MRSA細菌,同樣對治療MRSA常用的四環素類抗生素有抗藥性。

事件並揭露英國食物標準局(FSA)檢查入口肉類疑有監管漏洞,現時該局只會測試入口牛肉是否含MRSA,但MRSA在牛身上很罕見,而當局對其他更可能含MRSA的入口肉類,反而沒有做MRSA細菌測試。

英國食物標準局則回應稱,正密切留意情,但認為只要消費者依當局建議煮熟肉類才吃,即可用高溫殺死MRSA細菌,消除危險。

British Food Standards Agency responded by saying, is closely monitoring the situation . But as long as consumers according to the proposed cook meat before eating, can be killed under high temperature MRSA bacteria, the removal of danger.

本港食環署發言人回應稱,本港一直有從荷蘭進口冷藏豬肉,去年全年便有5300公噸,署方對荷蘭豬肉可能有MRSA表示關注,稍後將向當地有關方面了解情。目前,本港恆常的微生物測試,亦不包括豬肉。不過,發言人強調,豬肉只要煮至熟透,進食是安全的,而市民在處理生豬肉時,亦應戴手套,以防感染。
