Endocarditis caused by a group B Streptococcus strain, type III, in a nonencapsulated phase.

M Sellin1, M Linderholm, M Norgren, S Håkansson.   

Abstract

A nontypeable blood isolate of group B streptococci (GBS) from a patient with endocarditis is suggested to be the nonencapsulated phase of a GBS strain, type III. From the original high-density isolate, a low-density, encapsulated phase was selected by Percoll gradient centrifugation. This phenomenon should be considered before a GBS strain is classified as truly nontypeable.
