Genetic basis for nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 15 May 2003

Abstract excerpt

Nongroupable Neisseria meningitidis may constitute one-third or more of meningococcal isolates recovered from the nasopharynx of human carriers. The genetic basis for nongroupability was determined in isolates obtained from a population-based study in which 60 (30.9%) of 194 meningococcal isolates from asymptomatic carriers were not groupable. Forty-two percent of nongroupable isolates were related to serogroup Y...
