The essential genome of Streptococcus agalactiae [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2016
BACKGROUND: Next-generation sequencing of transposon-genome junctions from a saturated bacterial mutant library (Tn-seq) is a powerful tool that permits genome-wide determination of the contribution of genes to fitness of the organism under a wide range of experimental conditions. We report development, testing, and results from a Tn-seq system for use

Streptococcus agalactiae: a vaginal pathogen? [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 1996
The significance of Streptococcus agalactiae as an aetiological agent in vaginitis was evaluated. A total of 6226 samples from women who presented with vaginal symptoms was examined. The presence of >10 leucocytes/high-power field (h.p.f.) was taken to be the criterion of active infection. S. agalactiae was isolated from 10.1% of these samples.

A comparison of Streptococcus agalactiae septic arthritis and non-Streptococcus agalactiae septic arthritis [PDF]

Singapore Medical Journal, 2018
Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) is an uncommon cause of septic arthritis in the adult population. In recent years, there has been an increase in the incidence of GBS septic arthritis. This study aims to compare the clinical presentation, investigations, microbiology and outcome of management in patients with GBS and non-GBS septic

Population gene introgression and high genome plasticity for the zoonotic pathogen Streptococcus agalactiae [PDF]

, 2019
The influence that bacterial adaptation (or niche partitioning) within species has on gene spillover and transmission among bacteria populations occupying different niches is not well understood.

Streptococcus agalactiae endocarditis

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia (English Edition), 2012
Streptococcus agalactiae endocarditis is a rare clinical entity that is generally characterized by acute onset, the presence of large vegetations, rapid valvular destruction and frequent complications, particularly embolization. Mortality is high with medical therapy alone. The authors present a case report of Streptococcus agalactiae endocarditis in a
