Genetic Diversity in Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis Isolates from Patients with Invasive and Noninvasive Infections in a Japanese University Hospital (2014-2015).

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. equisimilis (SDSE) isolates with β-hemolysis and carbohydrate groups G or C are increasingly recovered from invasive infections in Japan. The aim of this study was to determine the epidemiological characteristics of SDSE isolates circulating locally among patients with invasive and noninvasive infections.
