Mitis group streptococci express variable pilus islet 2 pili. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Streptococcus oralis, Streptococcus mitis, and Streptococcus sanguinis are members of the Mitis group of streptococci and agents of oral biofilm, dental plaque and infective endocarditis, disease processes that involve bacteria-bacteria and bacteria-host

Assessment of a novel bile solubility test and MALDI-TOF for the differentiation of Streptococcus pneumoniae from other mitis group streptococci

Scientific Reports, 2017
This study assesses a novel bile solubility test and MALDI-TOF for the differentiation of Streptococcus pneumoniae from other mitis group streptococci, including differentiation of S. pneumoniae from Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae.

Mouse IgG2a Antibodies Specific for the Commensal Streptococcus mitis Show Stronger Cross-Reactivity with Streptococcus pneumoniae than IgG1 Antibodies

Journal of Immunology Research, 2019
Here we show that mouse IgG2a and IgG1 antibodies specific for the commensal Streptococcus mitis cross-react with pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes 2 and 4, although the cross-reactivity conferred by IgG2a is stronger than that by IgG1 ...

Determination of the species among mitis group of genus Streptococus using a molecular identification key [PDF]

Zbornik Matice Srpske za Prirodne Nauke, 2012
We analyzed the gene order conservation among the species of genus Streptococcus and based on this we developed a molecular identification key. The identification key was not made up based on the genes’ amino acid or nucleotide sequences but on the ...

THE OXIDATION OF BUTYRIC ACID BY STREPTOCOCCUS MITIS [PDF]

Journal of Bacteriology, 1952
Many cultures of the Streptococcus mitis group have been reported to oxidize butyric acid with the accumulation of hydrogen peroxide in both growing cultures and resting cell suspensions (Niven, Evans, and White, 1945). An investigation of this reaction was undertaken in this laboratory with the ultimate aim of obtaining information concerning the ...

Proteotyping bacteria: Characterization, differentiation and identification of pneumococcus and other species within the Mitis Group of the genus Streptococcus by tandem mass spectrometry proteomics.

PLoS ONE, 2018
A range of methodologies may be used for analyzing bacteria, depending on the purpose and the level of resolution needed. The capability for recognition of species distinctions within the complex spectrum of bacterial diversity is necessary for progress ...

EXPERIMENTAL FOCALIZED MYOCARDIAL LESIONS PRODUCED WITH STREPTOCOCCUS MITIS [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1914
1. By the intravenous injection into rabbits of Streptococcus mitis, we have produced focalized myocardial lesions which are identical with those caused by the injection of Streptococcus rheumaticus, and with those produced by Bracht and Wächter with Streptococcus viridans. 2.

Community-acquired Streptococcus mitis meningitis: a case report [PDF]

International Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2008
Streptococcus mitis is prevalent in the normal flora of the oropharynx, the female genital tract, gastrointestinal tract, and skin. Although it is usually considered to have low virulence and pathogenicity, Streptococcus mitis may cause life-threatening infections, particularly endocarditis. Meningitis with S.

Repeat Intraocular Sampling and Microbiological Testing in Infectious Endophthalmitis: A 27‐Year Prospective Observational Study at an Australian Statewide Tertiary Referral Centre

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Endophthalmitis requiring multiple ocular tissue sampling for microbiological testing is uncommon and has not been previously studied. This study aims to analyse cases with at least two ocular tissue samplings and testing of different ocular samples against culture yields. Methods A 27‐year prospective observational study using data

Description of Streptococcus thalassemiae sp. nov., a Bacterium Isolated from Human Blood

International Journal of Microbiology, 2023
Blood is a precious biological liquid that is normally sterile. Therefore, bacteria in the bloodstream are shown a priori anomaly. A blood culture is systematically performed to diagnose the cause of the bacteremia.
