Abstract
We compared serotyping to genotyping of group B streptococcal (GBS) surface proteins in 147 Australasian isolates. Results were concordant for the two methods in 73.8% of 122 isolates, discordant for three and partially discordant for 29 isolates. For the purpose of epidemiological typing of GBS, genotyping is superior to serotyping.Entities:
