Sequencing of the variable region of rpsB to discriminate between Streptococcus pneumoniae and other streptococcal species [PDF]

Open Biology, 2017
The vast majority of streptococci colonizing the human upper respiratory tract are commensals, only sporadically implicated in disease. Of these, the most pathogenic is Mitis group member, Streptococcus pneumoniae.
