Genomic re-evaluation of clinical isolates reveals a structured Streptococcus suis complex [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology
Accurate species-level identification among Streptococcus suis and its close relatives remains challenging due to limited resolution of existing diagnostic tools and incomplete taxonomic frameworks.

Streptococcus suisMeningitis, Hawaii [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009
To the Editor: Streptococcus suis is a swine pathogen and zoonotic agent responsible for septicemia and meningitis (1). S. suis is in emergence in some Asian countries. Indeed, this pathogen has been described as the most and second-most common cause of adult meningitis in Vietnam and Thailand, respectively (2,3). Moreover, during an outbreak in People’

Streptococcus suis: A Possible Emerging Zoonotic Pathogen in Romania [PDF]

Microorganisms
Streptococcus suis is a common germ in pig populations, with high carrier rates. Recent studies identify it as an emerging zoonotic pathogen, particularly in Southeast Asia, where raw pork is traditionally consumed.

A new lymph node infection model for Streptococcus suis serotype 2 in pigs [PDF]

Veterinary Research
Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is an important invasive porcine pathogen. Here, we describe a new lymph node infection model where 7 × 103 CFU S. suis serotype 2 were injected in the left cervical lymph node. In total, seven out of eight 5-week-old piglets

Spinal canal infection caused by Streptococcus suis in human: a case report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2022
Background Streptococcus suis is an emerging zoonotic pathogen that mainly causes meningitis, sepsis, arthritis, endocarditis, and endophthalmitis in human. To the best of our knowledge, Spinal canal infection caused by Streptococcus suis has rarely been

Accelerated loop-mediated isothermal amplification method for the rapid detection of Streptococcus suis serotypes 2 and 14 based on single nucleotide polymorphisms

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022
Streptococcus suis serotypes 2 and 14 are the most prevalent zoonotic strains. The establishment of a sensitive and extremely accurate method for point-of-care testing for Streptococcus suis serotype 2 and 14 strains is highly desirable. In this study, a

A rapid colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay based on polyclonal antibodies against HtpsC protein for the detection of Streptococcus suis

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
An efficient and rapid immunochromatographic assay (ICA) has been engineered for the detection of Streptococcus suis (S. suis). The underpinning principle of this ICA test lies in the use of polyclonal antibodies (pAbs) decorated with colloidal gold ...

Suicin 3908, a new lantibiotic produced by a strain of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 isolated from a healthy carrier pig. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
While Streptococcus suis serotype 2 is known to cause severe infections in pigs, it can also be isolated from the tonsils of healthy animals that do not develop infections. We hypothesized that S. suis strains in healthy carrier pigs may have the ability
