With S. anginosus blood stream infections it has been widely reported that the source is often from an abscess. In one series of 51 cases of Strep milleri group bacteremia, 6 were associated with abscesses. [5] Pyogenic liver abscess is associated with S. anginosus and in studies in the 1970s was reported to be the most common cause of hepatic ...
The anginosus group streptococci are members of the viridans streptococci group. [1] They have been implicated as etiologic agents in a variety of serious purulent infections, but because of their heterogeneous characteristics, these organisms may be unrecognized or misidentified by clinical laboratorians.

Clostridium botulinum; Note: Botulism is not an infection by Clostridium botulinum but caused by the intake of botulinum toxin. Botulism (and Infant botulism) Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs), electrochemiluminescent (ECL) tests Botulism antitoxin and supportive care No Sabiá virus: Brazilian hemorrhagic fever: No Brucella species ...
This group includes S. equi, which causes strangles in horses, [19] and S. zooepidemicus — S. equi is a clonal descendant or biovar of the ancestral S. zooepidemicus — which causes infections in several species of mammals, including cattle and horses.
The most common colonization site in the human body is within the nasal cavity and from here, the bacteria can cause infections. [42] [43] S. pseudintermedius infections in a human host have been known to cause endocarditis, post-surgical infections, inflammation of the nasal cavity (rhinosinusitis) and catheter-related bacteremia.

The S. anginosus group, occasionally termed “Streptococcus milleri group” (SMG) display hemolytic and serologic diversity, yet share core physiological traits. Though the three members of the SMG are phenotypically diverse, one common trait they share is the mechanism of producing the metabolite diacetyl , which contributes to generating a ...
As the state continues its recovery from last month’s Category 4 storm, health officials are warning that the storm surge has led to a spike in infections caused by Vibrio vulnificus, a ...
