Antibiotic Susceptibility and Prevalence of Adhesion Genes in Streptococcus pneumoniae Isolates Detected in Carrier Children in Tehran
2018
Jundishapur Journal of Microbiology
Pharyngeal carriers are the source and transitional vectors of invasive diseases. Attachment is the first step in pathogenicity. Strains of Streptococcus as normal flora can cause diseases in certain circumstances. Adhesion proteins of these bacteria play a fundamental role in the attachment and colonization. Objectives: In the present study, 5 genes encoding surface proteins namely phtD, pspC, phtE, lytA, and rrgA were evaluated in Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates collected from 4 main care
