TL;DR: Improvements in capabilities will greatly enhance future investigations of pneumococcal epidemiology and diseases and the biology of colonization and innate immunity to pneumococcas capsules, and more-precise and -efficient serotypes that directly detect polysaccharide structures are emerging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Serotype IX, a Proposed New Streptococcus agalactiae Serotype
TL;DR: Results indicate that these eight isolates represent a new S. agalactiae serotype, which it is proposed should be designated serotype IX.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: There is concern that increasing use of vancomycin will select vancomYcin‐resistant strains of MRSA, so that, in the near future, there may no longer be any effective antibiotic therapy against hospital staphylococci.
Journal ArticleDOI
Species identification and subtyping of Ureaplasma parvum and Ureaplasma urealyticum using PCR-based assays.
TL;DR: A selection of primer pairs was used to identify and subtype 78 clinical ureaplasma isolates from vaginal swabs of pregnant women and to identifyand subtype urea plasmas directly in 185 vaginalSwabs in which they had been previously detected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of rare genotypes of Streptococcus agalactiae in cultured red tilapia Oreochromis sp. and Nile tilapia O. niloticus in Thailand—Relationship to human isolates?
TL;DR: Histopathological changes indicated that infection of tilapia with GBS produced disease with systemic involvement characterized by multiple necrotic foci in various tissues, establishing that GBS is a pathogen of fish.
