Streptococcus agalactiae serotype Ib as an agent of meningitis in two adult nonpregnant women.

E R Martins1, C Florindo, F Martins, I Aldir, M J Borrego, L Brum, M Ramirez, J Melo-Cristino.   

Abstract

Two temporally and geographically clustered cases of meningitis caused by Streptococcus agalactiae expressing the infrequent Ib serotype are reported. Characterization by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and multilocus sequence typing revealed that the isolates were identical and represented the widely distributed ST10/ST8 lineage associated with serotype Ib.
