Phenotypic and molecular analysis of nontypeable Group B streptococci: identification of cps2a and hybrid cps2a/cps5 Group B streptococcal capsule gene clusters.

Emerging microbes & infections - 8 Aug 2018

Alhhazmi Areej, Tyrrell Gregory J

Abstract excerpt

The Group B streptococcus (GBS) can express a capsular polysaccharide (CPS). There are ten recognized CPSs (Ia, Ib, and II-IX). A GBS isolate is considered nontypeable (NT) when CPS cannot be identified as one of ten types. Two groups of GBS NT isolates were studied, isolates without surface sialic acid (sia(-)) and isolates with surface sialic acid (sia(+)). The first objective was to characterize NT sia(-)...
