Overview

What is Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Strep)?

Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) colonises the genital and gastrointestinal tract and is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis and meningitis.

Mother-to-baby transmission around birth drives perinatal screening. Antibody and antigen assays support GBS colonisation research, serotyping and maternal-vaccine development.

Transmission & symptoms

Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Streptococcus, GBS) colonises the gastrointestinal and genital tracts and is a leading cause of neonatal sepsis, pneumonia and meningitis, acquired around the time of birth.

Diagnosis & serology

Maternal colonisation is detected by culture/PCR, and immunity research measures anti-capsular polysaccharide antibodies by serotype. ELISA supports maternal-vaccine immunogenicity studies.

Research applications

Research tools support GBS serotype and capsular-antibody research, complement-mediated killing and the maternal immune responses relevant to vaccine development.

FAQs

Streptococcus agalactiae (Group B Strep) — frequently asked questions

Why is Group B Strep screened for in pregnancy?

Because maternal GBS colonisation can be transmitted to the baby at birth and cause severe neonatal infection; intrapartum prophylaxis reduces this risk.

What is the basis of GBS vaccine research?

Capsular polysaccharide antigens (by serotype), often conjugated to carrier proteins, are the leading maternal-vaccine candidates.

How is GBS detected?

By culture or PCR of vaginal/rectal swabs in late pregnancy, with serological assays used in immunity and vaccine research.
