Determinants of Gastrointestinal Group B <i>Streptococcus</i> Carriage in Adults

2023-08-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus , GBS) is a commensal Gram-positive bacterium found in the human gastrointestinal and urogenital tracts. Much of what is known about GBS relates to the diseases it causes in pregnant people and neonates. However, GBS is a common cause of disease in the general population with 90% of GBS mortality occurring in non-pregnant peop...
