Streptococcus pseudoporcinus sp. nov., a Novel Species Isolated from the Genitourinary Tract of Women
1 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus strains from animal and human sources identified biochemically as Streptococcus porcinus were investigated by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The nine human strains isolated between 1997 and 2005 formed a single cluster with more than 2.1% dissimilarity with S. porcinus strains from animal sources. A novel species, Streptococcus pseudoporcinus sp. nov., is proposed.
