''Streptococcus milleri'' is an unofficial name applied to a group of basically similar viridans streptococci species showing various hemolytic, serological, and physiological characteristics. The species name ''Streptococcus anginosus'' has recently been recognized as the approved name for these organisms. They have been implicated as etiologic agents in a variety of serious purulent infections, but because of their heterogeneous characteristics, these organisms may be unrecognized or misidentified by clinical laboratorians. The unique characteristic of them from other pathogenic streptococci, such as ''S. pyogenes'' and ''S. agalactiae'', is their ability to cause abscesses. ==Species== Members include:〔 * ''Streptococcus anginosus'' * ''Streptococcus constellatus'' * *S. constellatus subsp. constellatus * *S. constellatus subsp. pharyngis * ''Streptococcus intermedius'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Streptococcus milleri group」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
