Group B Streptococcus is a type of bacterial infection that can be found in a pregnant woman’s vagina or rectum.
Unfortunately, limited research has been conducted on minimizing colonization, opting instead for intrapartum antibiotics after a positive culture despite the unfavorable research evidence. Another option is to not screen for beta strep during pregnancy, but to follow a strict protocol during birthing if ...

The evolutionary process by which these molecules arise is inherently accompanied by the co-evolution of resistance mechanisms that shorten the clinical lifetime of any given class of antibiotics1. Virginiamycin acetyltransferase (Vat) enzymes are resistance proteins that provide protection against strepto...
