Bacterial virulence factors in neonatal sepsis: group B streptococcus

6 May 2004

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Group B streptococcus is a leading cause of neonatal pneumonia, septicaemia and meningitis. Up to one quarter of women in labour are now given intravenous antibiotics to prevent early-onset disease by the organism, a situation that will remain constant until a successful vaccine is available. From a molecular understanding of the pathogenicity of group B streptococcus we may be able to devise...
