Abstract excerpt

The purpose of this study was to examine characteristic profiles of Streptococcus pyogenes clinical isolates isolated in Japan during 1994-9. Genotyping of the M protein (emm typing) revealed that emm types 12 and 28 were the most common among 316 isolates. Most of the emm12 isolates were isolated from mucosa, while emm58 and emm89 were from skin. Moreover, the emm3 isolates were dominant in invasive infections....
