Streptococcus suis is a major swine pathogen responsible for important economic losses to
the swine industry worldwide. It is also an emerging zoonotic agent of meningitis and …

Streptococcus suis is an important swine pathogen that can be transmitted to humans by
contact with diseased animals or contaminated raw pork products. This pathogen possesses a …

Using serotyping, multilocus sequence typing, and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of
selected strains, we studied the population structure of 102 group B Streptococcus (GBS) …

Streptococcus suis is an emerging zoonotic agent of septicemia and meningitis. Knowledge
on host immune responses toward S. suis and strategies used by this pathogen for …

In the present study we report the distribution of different serotypes of Streptococcus suis
among strains isolated from diseased pigs in Québec, Canada, recovered between 2008 and …

We performed multilocus sequence typing of 64 North American Streptococcus suis serotype
2 porcine isolates. Strains were sequence type (ST) 28 (51%), ST25 (44%), and ST1 (5%). …

Streptococcus suis is a major swine pathogen and emerging zoonotic agent. In this study
we have determined the muropeptide composition of S. suis peptidoglycan (PG) and found, …

We determined the capsular polysaccharide (CPS) type of 600 group B Streptococcus (GBS)
(also known as Streptococcus agalactiae ) strains recovered from patients with invasive …

The capsular polysaccharide (CPS) of Streptococcus suis serotype 2 was isolated, purified,
chemically modified, and characterized. Sugar and absolute configuration analyses of the …

Many pathogens colonize different anatomical sites, but the selective pressures contributing
to survival in the diverse niches are poorly understood. Group A Streptococcus (GAS) is a …
