Genetic diversity of Streptococcus suis isolates as determined by comparative genome hybridization [PDF]

, 2011
Background Streptococcus suis is a zoonotic pathogen that causes infections in young piglets. S. suis is a heterogeneous species. Thirty-three different capsular serotypes have been described, that differ in virulence between as well as within serotypes.

TroA of Streptococcus suis is required for manganese acquisition and full virulence [PDF]

, 2011
Streptococcus suis causes infections in pigs and occasionally in humans resulting in 23 manifestations as meningitis, sepsis, arthritis and septic shock. For survival within the 24 host, S. suis requires numerous nutrients including trace metals.

Role of glucose and CcpA in capsule expression and virulence of Streptococcus suis [PDF]

, 2011
Streptococcus suis is one of the most important pathogens in pigs and is also an emerging zoonotic agent. After crossing the epithelial barrier, S. suis causes bacteraemia, resulting in meningitis, endocarditis and bronchopneumonia.
