In the medical setting, the most important groups are the alpha-hemolytic streptococci S. pneumoniae and Streptococcus viridans group, and the beta-hemolytic streptococci of Lancefield groups A and B (also known as âgroup A strepâ and âgroup B strepâ).
Examples of sterile BAP as well as plates with growth of normal flora (gamma and alpha hemolytic bacteria) are contrasted with the presence of beta hemolytic Streptococcus pyogenes. This video provides complete information on how to determine if bacteria exhibiting beta hemolysis on BAP are Streptococcus pyogenes. There are other types of bacteria that are beta hemolytic, however S. pyogenes will grow in punctiform (tiny round) creamy white colonies. S. pyogenes is a Gram-positive, beta hemolytic bacteria. There are also Gram-negative beta hemolytic bacteria, but their colony morphology is different than that of S. pyogenes.
