a-hemolytic streptococci

Streptococci that, when grown on blood-agar, produce a zone of partial hemolysis around each colony and often impart a greenish appearance to the agar. Included are S. pneumoniae and viridans group streptococci.

ß-hemolytic streptococci

group B streptococci

group A streptococci

Beta-hemolytic streptococci (esp. Streptococcus pyogenes) that produce human diseases, including pharyngitis, cellulitis, erysipelas, impetigo, otitis media, pneumonia, scarlet fever, necrotizing fasciitis, sepsis, sinusitis, and tonsillitis. In addition, group A streptococcus infection may have immunologic sequelae such as rheumatic fever and acute glomerulonephritis.

group B streptococci

Streptococci that, when grown on blood-agar, produce complete hemolysis around each colony, indicated by a yellowish zone. Included are S. pyogenes and S. agalactiae.These streptococci are a leading cause of early-onset neonatal infections and late-onset postpartal infections. In women, this is marked by urinary tract infection, chorioamnionitis, postpartum endometritis, bacteremia, and wound infections complicating cesarean section. Eradication of this organism during labor decreases the chances for neonatal sepsis. Performance of cervical-rectal screening cultures at 35 to 37 weeks’ gestation (and intrapartum treatment with penicillin if cultures are positive) prevents the development of neonatal sepsis. Synonym: ß-hemolytic streptococci

group D streptococci

Any Streptococcus species, including S. bovis and S. equinus, that is not destroyed by bile or exposure to heat. These strains can be destroyed in a laboratory by a 6.5% concentration of sodium chloride. Many Group D streptococci have been reclassified and placed in the genus Enterococcus (including S. faecalis, S. faecium, S. durans, and S. avium). For example S. faecalis is now E. faecalis. The remaining strains of nonenterococcal Group D streptococci include S. bovis and S. equinus.
