what streptococci are A-haemolytic?
most oral streptococci
what streptococci are B-haemolytic?
strep.pyogenes
where is strep.pyogenes located?
at the back of the throat
how is strep.pyogenes identified?
by presence of M protein
what is strep.pyogenes linked to?
skin infections
upper respiratory tract infections
autoimmune disease
what streptococci are Y-heamolytic?
enterococcus faecalis
what is enterococcus faecalis linked to?
healthy individuals
it is a commensal
