dc.description.sponsorshipGroup B streptococci (GBS), Streptococcus agalactiae, are
a major bacterial pathogen in newborns, pregnant women,
the elderly, and immunocompromised patients. GBS infection
is the leading cause of bacterial meningitis and sepsis,
especially in newborns. The United States Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has recommended
universal prenatal screening for vaginal and rectal GBS
colonization for all pregnant women at 35–37 weeks of
gestation, so that infected women can undergo prophylactic
antibiotic treatment [1]. GBS is divided into several
different subtypes based on capsular polysaccharide (CPS)
composition. Recently, some studies have reported that
antimicrobial susceptibility results vary according to the
GBS subtype [2, 3]. Information on the distribution of GBS
subtypes will allow more accurate surveillance and will be
essential for the development of protective GBS vaccines
[4]. Thus, the detection and subtyping of GBS pathogens is
important for the treatment and prevention of GBS
infection.
