Serotype identification of group B streptococci by PCR and sequencing.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Jan 2002

Kong Fanrong, Gowan Sonia, Martin Diana, James Gregory, Gilbert Gwendolyn L

Abstract excerpt

Group B streptococcus (GBS; Streptococcus agalactiae) is the most common cause of neonatal and obstetric sepsis and is an increasingly important cause of septicemia in elderly individuals and immunocompromised patients. Ongoing surveillance to monitor GBS serotype distribution will be needed to guide the development and use of GBS conjugate vaccines. We designed sequencing primers based on the previously...
