A simple, semiselective medium for anaerobic isolation of anginosus group streptococci from patients with chronic lung disease.

Richard D Waite1, David W Wareham, Samuel Gardiner, Robert A Whiley.   

Abstract

The anaerobic isolation of anginosus group streptococci (AGS) from respiratory specimens containing diverse microbiota using a semiselective blood agar medium incorporating nalidixic acid and sulfamethazine (NAS) is described. AGS were detected in 60% of tested sputa from patients with cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bronchiectasis. This demonstrates NAS to be a diagnostic tool for detecting AGS within the complex microbial communities associated with chronic lung disorders.
