What are the pathogenicity of streptococcus pypgenes?
Streptococcus pyogenes is a species of Gram-positive, aerotolerant bacteria in the genus Streptococcus. These bacteria are extracellular and made up of non-motile and non-sporing cocci (round cells) that tend to link in chains. They are clinically important for humans, as they are an infrequent, butRead more
Streptococcus pyogenes is a species of Gram-positive, aerotolerant bacteria in the genus Streptococcus. These bacteria are extracellular and made up of non-motile and non-sporing cocci (round cells) that tend to link in chains. They are clinically important for humans, as they are an infrequent, but usually pathogenic, part of the skin microbiota that can cause Group A streptococcal infection. S. pyogenes can cause a variety of diseases such as streptococcal pharyngitis, rheumatic fever, rheumatic heart disease, and scarlet fever.

Laboratory diagnosis of Streptococcus pyogenes can be done using several methods, including microscopy, culture, rapid antigen test, and molecular tests such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Specimens for bacteriological investigations can include pus or exudate. Gram staining of pus or exudate is a rapid and presumptive diagnostic procedure. A throat swab culture is the most specific method for diagnosis. A swab sample from your throat can be tested for the presence of S. pyogenes using a rapid antigen test or PCR test. Is

Streptococcus pyogenes is an aerobe and facultative anaerobe that grows best at an optimum temperature of 37°C and an optimum pH of 7.2. It requires enriched media for growth, such as blood agar, where it produces small (0.5-1mm), circular, semi-transparent colonies that produce a wide zone of β-hemRead more
Streptococcus pyogenes is an aerobe and facultative anaerobe that grows best at an optimum temperature of 37°C and an optimum pH of 7.2. It requires enriched media for growth, such as blood agar, where it produces small (0.5-1mm), circular, semi-transparent colonies that produce a wide zone of β-hemolysis. Growth and hemolysis are promoted by 5-10% CO2. Virulent strains, on fresh isolation form lesions, and produce a ‘matt’ (finely granular) colony while avirulent strains form ‘glossy’ colonies.

Streptococcus pyogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium. This means that it retains the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining procedure, and appears purple or blue under a microscope.

Neisseria gonorrhoeae, also known as gonococcus, is a Gram-negative non-motile diplococcus that is intracellular. It is an aerobe and grows well at an optimum temperature of 37°C on chocolate agar. It produces small, grayish, and granular colonies with slight umbonation on Modified Thayer Martin medium, circular, convex, grayish, or colorless colonies on New York City medium, and opaque, convex, and gray-white colonies on other media. It is positive for cytochrome oxidase.
See lessWhat are the staining characteristics of neisseria gonorrhoeae?
Neisseria gonorrhoeae, also known as gonococcus, is a Gram-negative bacterium. This means that it does not retain the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining procedure, and instead takes up the counterstain, safranin, and appears pink or red under a microscope.
