Spectrum of pneumococcal serotype 11A variants results from incomplete loss of capsule O-acetylation.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Mar 2014

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae is a significant bacterial pathogen that expresses >90 capsule serotypes. Conventional serotyping methods assume that each serotype is a genetically and antigenically distinct entity; however, recent investigations have revealed pneumococcal isolates that cannot be unambiguously serotyped because they share the properties of more than one serotype. Here, we employed a novel serotyping...
