The bacteria is considered an opportunistic infection opportunistic pathogen , rarely finding its way into the bloodstream, where it has been implicated in septicemia cases in people with neutropenia . S. salivarius has distinct characteristics when exposed to different environmental nutrients. For example, in the laboratory, if a SYTA plate is used, then S. salivarius is able to use the sucrose in the SYTA plate to produce a capsule around itself. However, if grown on GYC plate, with no sucrose, instead only glucose, then S. salivarius is not able to make a capsule from glucose. More importantly, in the laboratory, S. salivarius can show a distinct clearing on GYC plates. This is because S. salivarius can ferment the glucose yielding lactic acid. Next, the lactic acid actually reacts with the calcium carbonate in the GYC plate, resulting in zones of clearings on the plate. http www.phac aspc.gc.ca msds ftss msds149e.html Agglutination biology Agglutination of Streptococcus salivarius is often used in the diagnosis of atypical pneumonia caused by Haemophilus influenzae . bacteria stub Category Gram positive bacteria Category Streptococcaceae de Streptococcus salivarius es Streptococcus salivarius eo Streptococcus salivarius fr Streptococcus salivarius nl Streptococcus salivarius pl Streptococcus salivarius pt Streptococcus salivarius ... more details

S. sanguinis is a normal inhabitant of the healthy human mouth where it is particularly found in dental plaque , where it modifies the environment to make it less hospitable for other strains of Streptococcus that cause dental caries cavities , such as Streptococcus mutans . S. sanguinis may gain entrance to the bloodstream when opportunity presents dental cleanings and surgeries and colonize the heart valves, particularly the mitral and aortic valve s, where it is the most common cause of subacute bacterial endocarditis . For this reason, oral surgeons often prescribe a short course of antibiotics to be taken a few days before to a few days after oral surgery. Once an infection has occurred, treatment is much more complicated and generally involves the administration of several weeks of penicillin and aminoglycoside antibiotics. The complete genome genomic sequence of S. sanguinis was determined in 2007 by laboratories at Virginia Commonwealth University .
