Characterization of Nontypeable and Atypical Streptococcus pneumoniae Pediatric Isolates from 1994 to 2010

12 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a major cause of bacteremia, meningitis, pneumonia, sinusitis, and acute otitis media in children. Although optochin susceptibility, bile solubility, and Quellung testing are the standards for identifying and differentiating pneumococci, there are several reports of nontypeable pneumococci that give inconsistent results with one or more of these tests. We characterized 52 isolates...
