| [analysis of virulence-related proteins of streptococcus suis type 2 from swine streptococcus isolated in china]. | virulence-related proteins, muraminidase-released protein (mrp) and extracellular factor (ef) of streptococcus suis type 2, were extracted from jiangsu isolate ha9801 and were used as antigens for preparation of antibodies. bacterium cell envelope proteins and extracellular proteins of swine streptococcus strains including 17 chinese isolates, 1 german strain and 1 human isolate of streptococcus suis type 2, were analyzed by sds-page and immunoblotting using the above antibodies, 11 strains prod ... | 2002 | 12557357 |
| [study on molecular epidemiology of major pathogenic streptococcus suis serotypes in middle part of jiangsu province]. | to determine the prevalence of streptococcus suis and major pathogenic serotypes in middle part of jiangsu province. | 2008 | 18686855 |
| [the emergence of candidate pathogenicity island 89k dna sequence of streptococcus suis isolated from sporadic patients in zhejiang province]. | to identify the presence of candidate pathogenicity island 89k dna sequence of streptococcus suis serotype 2 (ss2) strains isolated from patient in zhejiang province. | 2008 | 19173936 |
| isolation and characterization of 89k pathogenicity island-positive st-7 strains of streptococcus suis serotype 2 from healthy pigs, northeast china. | streptococcus suis is a swine pathogen which can also cause severe infection, such as meningitis, and streptococcal-like toxic shock syndrome (stss), in humans. in china, most of the s. suis infections in humans were reported in the southern areas with warm and humid climates, but little attention had been paid to the northern areas. data presented here showed that the virulent serotypes 1, 2, 7, and 9 of s. suis could be steadily isolated from the healthy pigs in the pig farms in all the three ... | 2012 | 22701353 |
| adhesion activity of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase in a chinese streptococcus suis type 2 strain. | a total of 36 streptococcal strains, including seven s. equi ssp.zooepidemicus, two s. suis type 1 (ss1), 24 ss2, two ss9, and one ss7, were tested for glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase gene (gapdh). except from non-virulent ss2 strain t1 5, all strains harboured gapdh. the gapdh of chinese sichuan ss2 isolate zy05719 and jiangsu ss2 isolate ha9801 were sequenced and then compared with published sequences in the genbank. the comparison revealed a 99.9 % and 99.8 % similarity of zy05719 an ... | 2007 | 17555040 |
| streptococcal toxic shock syndrome caused by streptococcus suis serotype 2. | streptococcus suis serotype 2 (s. suis 2, ss2) is a major zoonotic pathogen that causes only sporadic cases of meningitis and sepsis in humans. most if not all cases of streptococcal toxic shock syndrome (stss) that have been well-documented to date were associated with the non-ss2 group a streptococcus (gas). however, a recent large-scale outbreak of ss2 in sichuan province, china, appeared to be caused by more invasive deep-tissue infection with stss, characterized by acute high fever, vascula ... | 2006 | 16584289 |
