Title: Hydrolytic enzymes of "Streptococcus milleri". Author: Ruoff KL, Ferraro MJ. Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1987 Sep; 25(9):1645-7. PubMed ID: 2958496. Abstract: Seventy-two isolates classified as "Streptococcus milleri" were examined for the presence of various hydrolytic enzymes. While no protein or lipid-degrading activities were demonstrated, some isolates showed DNase and mucopolysaccharide-degrading activities. Beta-hemolytic isolates were more likely to produce these enzymes than were nonhemolytic strains. Isolates of one "S. milleri" biotype (mannitol fermentation positive) were uniformly devoid of all enzyme activities tested.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
