Streptococcus anginosus is a species of Streptococcus. [1] This species, Streptococcus intermedius , and Streptococcus constellatus constitute the anginosus group , which is sometimes also referred to as the milleri group after the previously assumed but later refuted idea of a single species Streptococcus milleri .
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.

Streptococcus anginosus in the gut was independently associated with 20% higher odds of stroke after controlling for vascular risk factors. Anaerostipes hadrus—a gut bacteria associated with ...
Based on DNA homology and whole-cell polypeptide-pattern study findings supported by phenotypic characteristics, the DNA homology group of microaerobic streptococci that was formerly known as Streptococcus anginosus or Streptococcus milleri is now composed of three distinct species: S. anginosus, S. constellatus, and S. intermedius.
In fact, the amount of streptococcus anginosus in the saliva and the gut was associated with both a higher risk of stroke and worse outcomes, including death and other major cardiovascular events ...
Here's what bacterial meningitis is, how it's different from viral and other types of meningitis, and what treatment can be expected.
Streptococcus pneumoniae and a group of oral streptococci (Streptococcus viridans or viridans streptococci) display alpha-hemolysis. Alpha-hemolysis is also termed incomplete hemolysis or partial hemolysis because the cell membranes of the red blood cells are left intact.
