Streptococcus sanguinis biofilm formation & interaction with oral pathogens
Future Microbiology, 2018 Caries and periodontitis are the two most common human dental diseases and are caused by dysbiosis of oral flora. Although commensal microorganisms have been demonstrated to protect against pathogens and promote oral health, most previous studies have ...

Streptococcus pneumoniae: Invasion and Inflammation
Microbiology spectrum, 2019 Streptococcus pneumoniae (the pneumoccus) is the leading cause of otitis media, community-acquired pneumonia, and bacterial meningitis. The success of the pneumococcus stems from its ability to persist in the population as a commensal and avoid killing ...

Perinatal Streptococcus agalactiae Epidemiology and Surveillance Targets
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2018 Streptococcus agalactiae, or group B streptococcus (GBS), is a major neonatal pathogen. Recent data have elucidated the global prevalence of maternal and neonatal colonization, but gaps still remain in the epidemiology of this species.
