Streptococcus agalactiae clones infecting humans were selected and fixed through the extensive use of tetracycline
Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) is a commensal of the digestive and genitourinary tracts of humans that emerged as the leading cause of bacterial neonatal infections in Europe and North America during the 1960s. Due to the lack of epidemiological and genomic data, the reasons for this emergence are unknown. Here we show by comparative genome analysis and phylogenetic recon...
متن کاملPrevalence of Virulence Factors and Antimicrobial Resistance of Streptococcus agalactiae and Streptococcus uberis in Ruminant Sub-clinical Mastitic Milk in Iran
Background and Aims: The aim of this study was to determine the virulence and antibiotic resistance properties of Streptococcus agalactiae (S. agalactiae) and Streptococcus uberis (S. uberis) isolated from the ruminant’s sub-clinical mastitic milk in Iran. Materials and Methods: Positive samples in the CMT test were cultured and S. agalactiae and S. uberis have been identified using bi...
متن کاملThe Rapid CAMP Test for Identification of Streptococcus agalactiae Using Alpha Toxin
Alpha toxin derived from Clostridium perfringens was used for diagnosis of Streptococcus agalactiae (St.agalactiae) by rapid and spot CAMP tests. The selected Cl.perfringens strain was cultured in optimized conditions; the supernatant of culture was concentrated by ultra filter and purified by DEAE cellulose chromatography. The efficacy of both purified and crude α-toxins were examined by rapid...
متن کاملIn vitro activities of tigecycline against erythromycin-resistant Streptococcus pyogenes and Streptococcus agalactiae: mechanisms of macrolide and tetracycline resistance.
The activity of tigecycline was tested against erythromycin-resistant streptococci (107 Streptococcus pyogenes and 98 Streptococcus agalactiae strains). The presence of erythromycin and tetracycline resistance genes was determined by PCR. Among S. pyogenes strains the most prevalent gene was mef(A) (91.6%). The erm(B) gene was the most prevalent (65.3%) among S. agalactiae strains. Tigecycline ...
متن کاملStreptococcus agalactiae-associated Urinary Tract Infections amongst Male Patients at a Tertiary Care Setting in Southwest India
Introduction: The occurrence of urinary tract infections (UTIs) caused by the group B Streptococcus (GBS) in females is well documented. On the contrary, the prevalence amongst males is infrequent, and studies from the Indian subcontinent are limited. This study aimed to determine the occurrence of GBS bacteriuria and its antibiotic susceptibility profile amongst male patients. Methods: Clean-c...
