Microorganisms referred to as Streptococcus anginosus (Streptococcus milleri) group which consist of S. anginosus, S. intermedius and S. constellatus is very difficult to identify to the species level, because of their diversity of biochemical, hemolytic and serological characteristics and because of confusion surrounding their taxonomy. Identification procedures on three isolates from primary sterile sites of three different patients, using API 20A system are described. Streptococcus intermedius was established in two and Streptococcus anginosus in one case. The importance of these organisms as human pathogens should enhance efforts of clinical microbiologist towards their accurate identification.
被称为咽峡炎链球菌（米勒链球菌）群的微生物，由咽峡炎链球菌、中间型链球菌和星座链球菌组成，由于其生化、溶血和血清学特征的多样性以及围绕其分类学的混乱，很难鉴定到种水平。本文描述了使用API 20A系统对来自三名不同患者原发性无菌部位的三株分离菌的鉴定程序。两例鉴定为中间型链球菌，一例鉴定为咽峡炎链球菌。这些微生物作为人类病原体的重要性应促使临床微生物学家更加努力地对其进行准确鉴定。
