|---|---|
| streptococcus pneumoniae | A gram-positive organism found in the upper respiratory tract, inflammatory exudates, and various body fluids of normal and/or diseased humans and, rarely, domestic animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| streptococcus pyogenes | A species of gram-positive, coccoid bacteria isolated from skin lesions, blood, inflammatory exudates, and the upper respiratory tract of humans. It is a group a haemolytic streptococcus that can cause scarlet fever and rheumatic fever. Unlike the docile strains that cause strep throat, however, the virulent strains penetrate deep into the body, with catastrophic results. It has been demonstrated that invasive streptococcus a infections can trigger a toxic shock syndrome, chew up muscle (myositis), or destroy the sheath that covers the muscle (fasciitis, necrotizing). (12 Dec 1998) |
| Streptococcus salivarius | A species found in the human mouth, throat, and nasopharynx. (05 Mar 2000) |
| streptococcus sanguis | A gram-positive organism found in dental plaque, in blood, on heart valves in subacute endocarditis, and infrequently in saliva and throat specimens. L-forms are associated with recurrent aphthous stomatitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| streptococcus sobrinus | A species of gram-positive, coccoid bacteria isolated from the human tooth surface. Strains have been shown to be cariogenic in experimental animals and may be associated with human dental caries. (12 Dec 1998) |
| streptococcus suis | A species of streptococcus isolated from pigs. It is a pathogen of swine but rarely occurs in humans. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Streptococcus uberis | A species causing mastitis in cattle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Streptococcus viridans | A name applied not to a distinct species but rather to the group of alpha-haemolytic streptococci as a whole; viridans streptococci have been isolated from the mouth and intestines of humans, the intestines of horses, the milk and faeces of cows, milk and milk products, and the sputum and lungs in cases of primary atypical pneumonia.
