Antimicrobial susceptibility, serotype and genotype distribution of meningococci in Portugal, 2001-2002.

Epidemiology and infection - 1 Dec 2006

Ferreira E, Dias R, Caniça M

Abstract excerpt

One hundred and eighteen Neisseria meningitidis isolates were recovered from patients with invasive meningococcal disease in Portugal, over one year. Our study was undertaken to evaluate antimicrobial susceptibility, serogroup, serotype and genotype of isolates. One quarter (24.6%) of the isolates showed moderate resistance to penicillin and 47.4% were resistant to sulphadiazine. The two most common serosubtypes...
