The group B streptococcus can be an etiological agent of newborn's infections and vaginitis. Therefore, we evaluated the statistical incidence of this microorganism in vaginal swabs of 1403 non-selected subjects. We isolated this streptococcus in 12.3% samples and it was present in 26.3% of positive cultures. Our study confirms the elevate incidence of this microorganism and suggests the opportunity of this research in pregnancy monitoring and in gynaecological flogosis.
B族链球菌可能是新生儿感染和阴道炎的病原体。因此，我们评估了1403名未经过挑选的受试者阴道拭子中这种微生物的统计学发病率。我们在12.3%的样本中分离出了这种链球菌，且它存在于26.3%的阳性培养物中。我们的研究证实了这种微生物的高发病率，并表明了在孕期监测和妇科炎症方面开展此项研究的必要性。
