<i>Streptococcus suis</i> Serotypes Characterized by Analysis of Chaperonin 60 Gene Sequences
1 Oct 2001
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus suis is an important pathogen of swine which occasionally infects humans as well. There are 35 serotypes known for this organism, and it would be desirable to develop rapid methods methods to identify and differentiate the strains of this species. To that effect, partial chaperonin 60 gene sequences were determined for the 35 serotype reference strains of S. suis. Analysis of a pairwise distance...
