Staphylococcal enterotoxins and streptococcal pyrogenic exotoxins constitute a family of biologically and structurally related toxins produced by " Staphylococcus aureus " and " Streptococcus pyogenes ".
22.
The association between streptococci and disease was first described in 1874 by Rosenbach gave the organism its current name ( " Streptococcus pyogenes " ) in 1884.
23.
Nelfinavir and simple derivatives have been found to inhibit the production of the virulence factor streptolysin S, a cytolysin produced by the human pathogen " Streptococcus pyogenes ".
24.
Another important species, " Protophormia terraenovae ", is also notable for its feeding secretions, which combat infection by " Streptococcus pyogenes " and " S . pneumoniae ".
25.
Bacitracin can be used to distinguish " Streptococcus pyogenes " from other " strep " bacteria, with " S . pyogenes " being sensitive to bacitracin and others resistant.
26.
Bullous impetigo is caused by " Staphylococcus aureus, " which produces exfoliative toxins, whereas non-bullous impetigo is caused by either " Staphylococcus aureus ", or " Streptococcus pyogenes ."
27.
In the 1800s, up to 25 percent of European and American women who gave birth in hospitals died of " childbed fever, " later linked to the streptococcus pyogenes bacterium.
28.
The most common cause of lymphangitis in humans is " Streptococcus pyogenes " ( Group A strep ), although it can also be caused by the fungus " Sporothrix schenckii ".
29.
In addition, several Gram positive bacteria, including " Staphylococcus aureus " and " Streptococcus pyogenes ", as well as several fungi carry macrodomain-linked sirtuins ( termed " class M " sirtuins ).
30.
Up to 15 % of acute pharyngitis cases may be caused by bacteria, most commonly " Streptococcus pyogenes ", a group A streptococcus in streptococcal pharyngitis ( " strep throat " ).
