Comparison of group B streptococci colonization in vaginal and rectal specimens by culture method and polymerase chain reaction technique

21 Jan 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococci, GBS) is a colonizing microorganism in pregnant women and without causing symptoms. Colonization of GBS in the rectovaginal region in late of pregnancy is a risk factor for newborn diseases. GBS infection in newborn babies is acquired by the aspiration of infected amniotic fluid or vertical transmission during delivery through the birth canal. The aim of...
