Biological Characterization and Inhibition of <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> ZUH1 Causing Chronic Cystitis by <i>Crocus sativus</i> Methanol Extract, Bee Honey Alone or in Combination with Antibiotics: An In Vitro Study

Biological Characterization and Inhibition of <i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> ZUH1 Causing Chronic Cystitis by <i>Crocus sativus</i> Methanol Extract, Bee Honey Alone or in Combination with Antibiotics: An In Vitro Study

<i>Streptococcus pyogenes</i> (<i>S. pyogenes</i>) ZUH1 was isolated and characterized using morphological, cultural and biochemical methods. The results showed that the marker genes (namely spyCEP, ssa, sic, sdaB and speG) indicating group A streptococci (GAS) were detected...
