Genetic characterization of a new variant within the ET-37 complex of Neisseria meningitidis associated with outbreaks in various parts of the world

1 Oct 2000

Abstract excerpt

A new variant within the electrophoretic type (ET)-37 complex of Neisseria meningitidis, ET-15, first detected in Canada in 1986, has been associated with severe clinical infections and high mortality rates in several European countries, Israel and Australia. To ascertain the genetic and epidemiological relationships of ET-15 strains from different geographical areas, 72 ET-15 isolates from 10 countries were...
