Group B streptococci--gastrointestinal organisms?
Matched perianal swabs, rectal swabs, and faecal samples from a group of male homosexual patients attending a clinic for sexually transmitted disease were examined for the presence of group B streptococci (GBS). GBS recovery rates were as follows: perianal skin 31/115 (27%), rectal mucosa 18/72 (25%) and faeces 7/115 (6%). The recovery of GBS from faeces was similar to that obtained from faecal...
متن کاملExtracellular virulence factors of group B Streptococci.
Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is the leading cause of severe bacterial infections in human newborn infants. Advances in streptococcal molecular genetics and refinement of in vitro and in vivo model systems of GBS disease have led to the discovery and characterization of several extracellular virulence factors elaborated by this pathogen. This review summarizes our current understanding of GBS ext...

متن کاملCan group B streptococci cause symptomatic vaginitis?
BACKGROUND Maternal cervicovaginal colonization with Lancefield group B streptococci (GBS) is an important risk factor for neonatal morbidity and mortality. About 15% of women are carriers of GBS. Usually, they are asymptomatic. CASES We describe two patients with symptomatic vaginitis for which no apparent cause was found. Both patients were heavily colonized with GBS. After antibiotic treat...
متن کاملGroup B streptococci in neonatal deaths.
Clinical microbiologists are reminded to look for group B streptococci in neonatal infants. We report four deaths, one with meningitis, occurring among 14 such infected newborn infants at our institution; of the nursing staff, 31% were also carriers of group B streptococci.
