dc.description.abstract
Neonatal invasive disease due to Streptococcus agalactiae is life threatening
and preventive strategies suitable for resource limited settings are urgently
needed. Protective coverage of vaccine candidates based on capsular epitopes
will relate to local epidemiology of S. agalactiae serotypes and successful
management of critical infections depends on timely therapy with effective
antibiotics. This is the first report on serotype distribution and
antimicrobial susceptibility of S. agalactiae in pregnant women from a Central
African region. Serotypes V, III, and Ib accounted for 88/109 (81%) serotypes
and all isolates were susceptible to penicillin and clindamycin while 13%
showed intermediate susceptibility to erythromycin.
