30 Sept 2016
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus suis is an important pathogen of pigs and may cause serious disease in humans. Serotyping is an important tool for detection and epidemiological studies of S. suis Thirty-three reference serotypes and nine novel cps loci (NCLs) are recognized in S. suis To gain a better understanding of the prevalence and genetic characteristics of NCLs, we investigated the serotype identity of 486 isolates isolated...
