D McGhie, J G Hutchison, F Nye

    British Heart Journal
    |April 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Streptococcus mutans, a common oral bacterium, is rarely linked to endocarditis due to identification challenges. This study explores methods to improve its isolation and differentiation from other streptococci in bacterial endocarditis cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Microbiology
    • Infectious Diseases
    • Cardiology

    Background:

    • Viridans group streptococci are frequent causes of bacterial endocarditis.
    • Streptococcus mutans, despite its association with dental caries, is infrequently reported in endocarditis cases.
    • Difficulties in isolation and identification may contribute to the underreporting of S. mutans endocarditis.
