Phenotypic and molecular characterization of Streptococcus agalactiae colonized in Chinese pregnant women: predominance of ST19/III and ST17/III.

Research in Microbiology, 2018
Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) remains a major cause of invasive infections in neonates and pregnant women. Our aim was to evaluate the phenotypic and molecular characteristics of GBS isolates in order to reveal potential relationships among molecular characteristics and differences in genotype-phenotype characteristics between ST17 and ST19.

Sequence type 17 is a predictor of subsequent bacteremia in vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium-colonized patients: a retrospective cohort study

Antimicrobial Resistance and Infection Control, 2021
Background Sequence type (ST) 17 vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF) is frequently isolated in nosocomial settings. The aim of this study was to identify whether ST17 contributes to subsequent bacteremia more often than other STs among ...

Clonal outbreak of ST17 multidrug-resistant Enterococcus faecium harbouring an Inc18-like::Tn1546 plasmid in a haemo-oncology ward of a Spanish hospital. [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2012
To report a clonal outbreak of ST17 vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) carrying Tn1546 (vanA) in a haemo-oncology ward of a tertiary teaching hospital in the south of Spain (January-September 2009).Twenty-two VREfm strains from 13 patients were characterized by PFGE, multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) and ...

Proteomic biomarkers associated with Streptococcus agalactiae invasive genogroups. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Group B streptococcus (GBS, Streptococcus agalactiae) is a leading cause of meningitis and sepsis in newborns and an etiological agent of meningitis, endocarditis, osteoarticular and soft tissue infections in adults.

A Comparative Analysis of Molecular Epidemiology and Antibiotic Resistance in Group B Streptococcus Isolated From Invasive and Noninvasive Adult Cases in Daejeon, South Korea. [PDF]

Can J Infect Dis Med Microbiol
Background: This study aims to determine the molecular features and antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B streptococcus, GBS) causing invasive and noninvasive infections in Korean adults. Methods: Sequence type (ST), capsular serotype, pilus island typing, and antimicrobial susceptibility were analyzed for GBS isolates obtained ...

Increasing trend of healthcare-associated infections due to vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE-fm) paralleling escalating community-acquired VRE-fm infections in a medical center implementing strict contact precautions: An epidemiologic and pathogenic genotype analysis and its implications

Journal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2023
Objective: To clarify whether there were clandestine intra-hospital spreads of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE-fm) isolates that led to specific strain of VRE lingering in the hospital and/or developing outbreaks that rendered a ...

Group B streptococcus virulence factors associated with different clinical syndromes: Asymptomatic carriage in pregnant women and early-onset disease in the newborn

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundGroup B streptococcus (GBS) harbors many virulence factors but there is limited data regarding their importance in colonization in pregnancy and early-onset disease (EOD) in the newborn.

Type VII secretion system and its effect on group B Streptococcus virulence in isolates obtained from newborns with early onset disease and colonized pregnant women

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionGBS may cause a devastating disease in newborns. In early onset disease of the newborn the bacteria are acquired from the colonized mother during delivery.
