Capsular serotypes, virulence-associated genes and antimicrobial susceptibility of Streptococcus suis isolates from pigs in Korea
1 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Streptococcus suis is an important pig pathogen with potential for human transmission. The serotype distributions and phenotypic characteristics vary over time and among regions; however, little is known about the characteristics of S. suis isolates in Korea. In this study, 240 S. suis isolates collected from pigs in Korea in 2009-2010 were serotyped by coagglutination tests, subsequently screened for three...
