Abstract excerpt

We used a rabbit model to assess the effects of capsular serotype, genetic background and beta-lactam resistance on the course and severity of experimental meningitis. Meningitis was induced by five pneumococcal strains belonging to five different clones with known invasive potential: two serotype 3 strains (ST260(3) and Netherlands(3)-31 clones) and three serotype 23F strains with different beta-lactam...
