Typing Group a Hemolytic Streptococci
Two methods of typing group A hemolytic streptococci have been described: slide agglutination and anti-M precipitin tests. The first, developed by Griffith (1), is more extensively used. I t has the distinct advantages of requiring small amounts of serum and culture, and of a quick reaction time when all conditions are favorable. I t has certain disadvantages: The granular growth of some strain...
متن کاملThe Serological Typing of Hemolytic Streptococci
The relationships among the hemolytic streptococci have been greatly clarified by the fundamental work of Lancefield (1). She has shown that these organisms may be classified into groups on the basis of a precipitin reaction and ample evidence has accumulated (2, 3) to show that almost all human infections are caused by members of her Group A. Strains of the groups from B to K are responsible f...
متن کاملBacitracin and coagglutination for grouping of beta-hemolytic streptococci.
Bacitracin may be used for presumptive differentiation of group A from other beta-hemolytic streptococci. Whatever criteria are used for the test, a small number of erroneous results will be obtained. With the 1,161 strains studied in this laboratory, using a zone of 10 mm or greater as indicative of group A was better than using Maxted's original criterion of any zone of inhibition for group A...
متن کاملGroup B beta-hemolytic streptococci causing pharyngitis.
Group B beta-hemolytic streptococci were isolated from the throats of 49 of 1,110 patients who had pharyngitis. Compared with patients whose throat cultures were negative for beta-hemolytic streptococci, those harboring group B were more likely to have enlarged tonsils (P less than 0.001), exudate (P less than 0.02), and tender enlarged anterior cervical lymph nodes (P less than 0.01). Group B ...
