Group A streptococci (GAS) are gram positive cocci that can be divided into more than 100 M-serotypes or emm types based on their M proteins. Their virulence is related directly to the M protein on the cell surface that inhibits phagocytosis. Although it is more commonly thought of in the context of causing clinical illness, Streptococcus pyogenes can ...

Pediatrics In Review, 2018
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) infections are highly prevalent, and account for major morbidity and mortality worldwide, from both primary infections and subsequent complications. On the basis of strong research evidence, all children older than 3 years who present with pharyngitis without features that strongly suggest a viral etiology should undergo ...

Transduction in Group A streptococcus
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1968Abstract Transduction, a phage mediated genetic transfer, has been reported to occur in several species of bacteria ( Hartman and Goodgal, 1959 ; Thorne, 1962 ; Allen et , al. , 1963 ). This report presents evidence for the transduction to streptomycin resistance of Group A streptococcus by several phages.

Over the past 25 years group B streptococci have become established as one of the main bacterial pathogens of the neonate in Western Europe and the United States. The attack rate of 0.25/1,000 live births found by Mayon White in Great Britain1 appears typical of many European countries.

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1980
Three patients with serious infections due to beta hemolytic streptococci, Lancefield group G are presented. The clinical syndromes are septicemia with possible endocarditis in a patient with laryngeal carcinoma, septic arthritis in a healthy boy and endocariditis in an adult with no previous underlying valvular disease.

The Lancet, 1999
During the 1990s the focus of group B streptococcus (GBS) disease research has shifted to prevention. Increased use of intrapartum antimicrobial prophylaxis in North America and Australia has led to substantial declines in perinatal disease. Vaccine development (initiated two decades earlier) has yielded results--for example, polysaccharide-protein ...

Streptococcus castoreus, an uncommon group A Streptococcus in beavers
Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 2019Streptococcus castoreus is a rarely encountered beta-haemolytic group A Streptococcus with high tropism for the beaver as host. Based on 27 field isolates under study, evidence strongly suggests that S. castoreus behaves as an opportunistic pathogen in beavers.

Group a streptococcus necrotizing fasciitis
Comprehensive Therapy, 2000Necrotizing fasciitis due to Group A streptococcus has been observed with increasing frequency over the past decade. Appropriate management requires rapid recognition of this life-threatening infection and expeditious antimicrobial therapy as well as surgical debridement or excision of tissue.
