Multiple strains of Streptococcus pyogenes in skin sores of aboriginal Australians.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Jun 1995

Carapetis J, Gardiner D, Currie B, Mathews J D

Abstract excerpt

A molecular technique (random amplification of polymorphic DNA) was used to characterize group A streptococcal (GAS) strains among 194 isolates from 55 swabs from 12 Australian Aboriginal children and adults with multiple pyoderma lesions. Ninety-three percent of the lesions contained only one strain of GAS, but 8 of 12 individuals were infected with more than one strain. We conclude that accurate epidemiologic...
