Neisseria meningitidis intermediately resistant to penicillin and causing invasive disease in South Africa in 2001 to 2005.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Oct 2008

Abstract excerpt

Neisseria meningitidis strains (meningococci) with decreased susceptibility to penicillin (MICs, >0.06 microg/ml) have been reported in several parts of the world, but the prevalence of such isolates in Africa is poorly described. Data from an active national laboratory-based surveillance program from January 2001 through December 2005 were analyzed. A total of 1,897 cases of invasive meningococcal disease were...
