(Health-NewsWire.Net, May 06, 2015 ) Glendale, CA -- Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is a very common bacterium found in the nose, within the intestinal tract, or on the skin of dogs. It affects over 50% of dogs, and to a lesser degree cats. While in most cases it doesn't cause harm, it is opportunistic and if an animal gets sick or injured, S. pseudintermedius will take advantage of a weakened immune system and launch an attack. This infection can make dogs very unwell and untreated may lead to death in extreme cases.
Traditionally the veterinarian approach has been to subscribe antibiotics. However, with new antibiotic resistant strains of this bacteria emerging, there is an emphasis on finding alternative treatments. New research emerging from Korea suggests that Manuka Oil may offer a natural treatment to stop S. pseudintermedius infections; including those strains currently resistant to antibiotics.
In this recent study, scientists evaluated the in vitro anti-microbial activity against Manuka Oil. The research isolated S. pseudintermedius strains from dogs with ear and skin infections and exposed the bacteria to Manuka Oil in controlled conditions. Song and colleagues found that Manuka Oil had excellent inhibiting activity against all bacterial isolates. Not only did it prevent bacteria formation, it also worked to kill existing bacteria. Based on this study, researchers concluded that Manuka Oil may have a significant therapeutic role in treating superficial infections caused by S. pseudintermedius and similar strains, including antiobotic resistant versions.
Although high quality Manuka Oil is difficult to acquire in the United States, a company called Manuka Naturals has entered a trade agreement with a reputable supplier in New Zealand to import high grade, pure Manuka Oil. Their Manuka 100% Pure Essential Oil has a wide range of therapeutic applications and may help in the treatment of bacterial infections in pets. This product can be purchased directly from Amazon.com and is available throughout the United States.
