Sf. Amass et al., DEMONSTRATION OF VERTICAL TRANSMISSION OF STREPTOCOCCUS-SUIS IN SWINEBY GENOMIC FINGERPRINTING, Journal of clinical microbiology, 35(6), 1997, pp. 1595-1596
Isolates of Streptococcus suis serotype 5 collected from three sows an
d nine of their pigs at birth were analyzed by genomic DNA fingerprint
ing. The cleavage patterns of DNA from S. suis isolated from the sows
matched the cleavage patterns of DNA from S. suis isolated from their
respective pigs.
