molecular epidemiology and distribution of serotypes, genotypes, and antibiotic resistance genes of streptococcus agalactiae clinical isolates from guelma, algeria and marseille, france. | this study describes, for the first time, the genetic and phenotypic diversity among 93 streptococcus agalactiae (group b streptococcus, gbs) isolates collected from guelma, algeria and marseille, france. all strains were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (maldi-tof ms). the molecular support of antibiotic resistance and serotyping were investigated by polymerase chain reaction (pcr). the phylogenetic lineage of each gbs isolate was determ ... | 2015 | 26415872 |
