Hemagglutination properties of Streptococcus suis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990
A total of 49 strains (23 reference strains and 26 field isolates) of Streptococcus suis were tested for their ability to agglutinate erythrocytes from different animal species. Ten different hemagglutination patterns were established. Thirty-three strains (67%) did not agglutinate any of the erythrocytes tested; sixteen strains (33%) agglutinated ...

Conjugative transfer of ICESde3396 between three β-hemolytic streptococcal species [PDF]

, 2014
Background: Integrative conjugative elements (ICEs) are mobile genetic elements (MGEs) that possess all genes necessary for excision, transfer and integration into recipient genome. They also carry accessory genes that impart new phenotypic features to

Identification of Streptococcus suis Meningitis by Direct Triplex Real-Time PCR, Burkina Faso

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Meningitis confirmation in Burkina Faso uses PCR for detecting Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, or Hemophilus influenzae. We identified 38 cases of meningitis among 590 that were PCR-positive for 3 nonpneumococcal streptococcal pathogens,

Clonal analysis and virulence of Australian isolates of Streptococcus suis type 2 [PDF]

, 1994
Multilocus enzyme electrophoresis was used to divide 124 Australian isolates of Streptococcus suis type 2 into 17 electrophoretic types (ETs). Isolates in ET 1 were the most frequent cause of disease amongst Western Australian pigs, but isolates of ET 8 ...
