我们研究了收集的151株草绿色型链球菌，这是主要从人类口腔中分离，包括参考菌株，试图修改和改进这组细菌的分类。我们的检查包括测定大量的生化和生理特征以及血清学反应性。由此产生的数据揭示了几个迄今未被识别的特征的分类学意义，和几个物种现在可以更准确地定义。分类群的诊断关键。菌株先前确定为血链球菌可分为诊断关键的分类群。先前鉴定为血链球菌的菌株可分为明显不同的种，狭义血链球菌（模式菌株，ATCC 10556）和一个新种，戈登链球菌（模式菌株，ATCC 10558）。缓症链球菌可分为两个生物型，即具有O组抗原的菌株和具有K组抗原的菌株。分配给咽峡炎链球菌的菌株组在生物化学和血清学上是异质的，但数据不允许自然细分。根据本研究结果，对口腔链球菌、链球菌米蒂斯山提供血液。这项研究的分类结果与以前发表的遗传数据完全一致。
We examined a collection of 151 strains of the viridans type of streptococci, which were isolated mainly from human oral cavities and included reference strains, in an attempt to revise and improve the taxonomy of this group of bacteria. Our examinations included determinations of a high number of biochemical and physiological characteristics and serological reactivity. The resulting data revealed several hitherto unrecognized characters of taxonomic significance, and several of the species can now be more accurately defined. A diagnostic key to the taxa is presented. Strains previously identified as Streptococcus sanguis could be divided diagnostic key to the taxa is presented. Strains previously identified as Streptococcus sanguis could be divided into clearly distinct species, streptococcus sanguis sensu stricto (type strain, ATCC 10556) and a new species, Streptococcus gordonii (type strain, ATCC 10558). Streptococcus mitis was divided into two biovars, consisting of strains possessing group O antigens and strains possessing group K antigen. The group of strains assigned to Streptococcus anginosus was biochemically and serologically heterogeneous, but the data did not allow natural subdivisions. Based on the results of this study, emended descriptions of the species Streptococcus oralis, S. mitis, s. sanguis are provided. The classification resulting from this study is in complete agreement with previously published genetic data.
