GBS serotypes III and V were the most prevalent in pregnant women and exhibited resistance to tetracycline, clindamycin and sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim. Serotype III showed high sialic acid content and PFGE analysis discerned 33 heterogeneous profiles. Phenotypic and genotypic characterization could be relevant to control GBS infections unaffected by intra-partum chemoprophylaxis.
B群链球菌血清型III和V在孕妇中最为常见,并且对四环素、克林霉素和磺胺甲恶唑/甲氧苄啶耐药。血清型III显示出高唾液酸含量,脉冲场凝胶电泳分析识别出33种不同的图谱。表型和基因型特征可能与控制不受产时化学预防影响的B群链球菌感染有关。
