摘要
Recently, we reported that Streptococcus pyogenes kills Caenorhabditis elegans by the use of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Here we show that diverse streptococcal species cause death of C elegans larvae in proportion to the level of H2O2 produced. H2O2 may mask the effects of other pathogenicity factors of catalase-negative bacteria in the C. elegans infection model.
