Typing of human isolates of Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococcus, GBS) strains from Zimbabwe.

Journal of medical microbiology - 1 Jul 2002

Moyo Sylvester R, Maeland Johan A, Bergh Kåre

Abstract excerpt

Serotyping and genotyping are important tools in epidemiological studies of group B streptococcal (GBS) infections, which are important diseases in man, particularly in newborns. In the present study, 241 GBS isolates from Zimbabwe, comprising 124 carrier isolates from pregnant women and 117 isolates from patients hospitalised for various diseases, were serotyped. Antibodies specific for the capsular...
