Abstract

In 2011, an interlaboratory quality control (QC) program for emm typing group A streptococci (GAS) was incorporated into existing international circumpolar surveillance QC programs. From 2011 - 2015, 35 GAS isolates were distributed to three laboratories; emm type-level concordance was 100%, while the overall sub-type level concordance was 83%. Published by Elsevier Inc.
