This study investigates the prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus contamination and assesses antimicrobial resistance patterns in chicken meat, chicken swabs, and farm workers in Khartoum State, Central Sudan. Four hundred samples were collected from the poultry sector. S. aureus was found in 27.8% of the samples, with 18.9% from chicken meat, 34.7% from chicken swabs, and 23.5% from farm workers. The prevalence did not significantly differ between sources (P>0.05). Among the 111 isolates, 102 (91.9%) were mecA gene positive, classified as MRSA, while nine isolates were mecA negative but still methicillin-resistant. Resistance patterns against seven antibiotics were tested. For mecA positive isolates, resistance rates were 15.7% for Penicillin G, 86.3% for Oxacillin, 88.2% for Cefoxitin, 100% for Methicillin, 9.8% for Vancomycin, 100% for Erythromycin, and 97.1% for Tetracyclines. For mecA negative isolates, resistance rates were 11.1% for Penicillin G, 11.1% for Oxacillin, 33.3% for Cefoxitin, 100% for Methicillin, 11.1% for Vancomycin, 100% for Erythromycin, and 88.9% for Tetracyclines. Sensitivity to Penicillin and Vancomycin was observed in 84.3% and 90.1% of mecA positive isolates, and 88.9% of mecA negative isolates. MICs for Penicillin ranged from 45 to 0.005 µg/ml for mecA-positive isolates and from 11.25 to 0.01 µg/ml for mecA-negative isolates. MICs for Vancomycin ranged from 12.5 to 0.17 µg/ml for mecA-positive isolates and from 6.25 to 0.35 µg/ml for mecA-negative isolates. The reference strain ATCC25923 showed MICs of 2.8 µg/ml for Penicillin and 6.25 µg/ml for Vancomycin. The highest isolation rate of S. aureus was from chicken swabs, followed by chicken meat and farm workers. The highest incidence of MRSA was also from chicken swabs, indicating a potential source of antimicrobial-resistant S. aureus infection. Emphasizing food hygiene is essential to sustain public health.
