A single-center investigation on serotypes, drug resistance and clinical significance of GBS isolates from pregnant and non-pregnant adults in Baoji, China
The present findings suggest that GBS may potentially infect and colonize adults, regardless of gender or age, in Baoji, China. Serotypes Ib, III, and V are common serotypes, but their frequency is related to the host's age group, pregnancy status, and clinical relevance. GBS isolates are still generally susceptible to penicillin.
