Identification of Streptococcus pneumoniae and other Mitis streptococci: importance of molecular methods.

European journal of clinical microbiology & infectious diseases : official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology - 1 Dec 2020

Sadowy Ewa, Hryniewicz Waleria

Abstract excerpt

The Mitis group of streptococci includes an important human pathogen, Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) and about 20 other related species with much lower pathogenicity. In clinical practice, some representatives of these species, especially Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae and Streptococcus mitis, are sometimes mistaken for S. pneumoniae based on the results of classical microbiological methods, such as...
