    Sammanfattning : Beta-haemolytic streptococci (BHS) are important causes of human infections and they have traditionally been grouped according to Lancefield antigens. The spectrum of infections caused by BHS includes pharyngitis, skin infections, bacteraemia/sepsis, endocarditis, septic arthritis and meningitis. LÄS MER

    Författare :Margareta Flock; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Strangles is an acute upper respiratory tract disease in the horse, which is characterized by purulent pharyngitis and lymphadenitis. It is caused by Streptococcus equi subsp. equi. The severe suffering and economical losses due to Streptococcus equi infections makes it one of the most important bacterial diseases in horses. LÄS MER
