Streptococcus iniae
Streptococcus iniae is a fish pathogen primarily associated with disease in farmed and wild fish, particularly tilapia, and is recognized as a zoonotic agent: it has caused invasive infections in humans who handle fish, including cases of bacteremia and soft tissue infection. The published literature on this organism is entirely pathogenicity-focused, covering virulence characterization, antibiotic treatment in aquaculture, and human zoonotic case reports. There is no evidence supporting any probiotic or human health benefit for this organism; it is a pathogen.
