GBS can be detected by a vaginal or rectal swab culture, and sometimes from a urine culture. Blood tests can be used to confirm GBS infection in infants who exhibit symptoms.

Streptococcus infection is typically diagnosed through a throat culture or a rapid strep test, which involves taking a throat swab to check for the presence of the bacteria. Symptoms such as sore throat, fever, and swollen tonsils may also support a clinical diagnosis of streptococcal infection. It is important to consult a healthcare provider for proper diagnosis and treatment.
