Microbiologic characterisation of bacterial infections in children with atopic dermatitis

Southern African Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background: Patients with atopic dermatitis (AD), the commonest chronic inflammatory skin disease are often colonised and infected by Staphylococcus aureus.

Probiotic Lactobacillus sp. inhibit growth, biofilm formation and gene expression of caries‐inducing Streptococcus mutans

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2018
Streptococcus mutans contributes significantly to dental caries, which arises from homoeostasic imbalance between host and microbiota. We hypothesized that Lactobacillus sp.

A distinct sortase SrtB anchors and processes a streptococcal adhesin AbpA with a novel structural property. [PDF]

, 2016
Surface display of proteins by sortases in Gram-positive bacteria is crucial for bacterial fitness and virulence. We found a unique gene locus encoding an amylase-binding adhesin AbpA and a sortase B in oral streptococci.

Streptococcus pneumoniae Capsular Polysaccharide

Microbiology spectrum, 2019
The polysaccharide capsule of Streptococcus pneumoniae is the dominant surface structure of the organism and plays a critical role in virulence, principally by interfering with host opsonophagocytic clearance mechanisms.

Genome characterization and population genetic structure of the zoonotic pathogen, streptococcus canis [PDF]

, 2012
Background - Streptococcus canis is an important opportunistic pathogen of dogs and cats that can also infect a wide range of additional mammals including cows where it can cause mastitis. It is also an emerging human pathogen.

PCR for the detection of pathogens in neonatal early onset sepsis. [PDF]

, 2020
BACKGROUND: A large proportion of neonates are treated for presumed bacterial sepsis with broad spectrum antibiotics even though their blood cultures subsequently show no growth. This study aimed to investigate PCR-based methods to identify pathogens not

Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae [PDF]

Revista chilena de infectología, 2010
Nueva especie bacteriana, descrita por primera vez el año 2004 por Arbique y cols. Estudios de homología de ADN-ADN sugieren que corresponde a una especie distinta de Streptococcus pneumoniae y Streptococcus mitis. Esta nueva especie muestra una similitud cercana a 50% con S. pneumoniae.

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 ...
