Abstract excerpt

Neisseria meningitidis (Nm), a commensal that colonizes the nasopharynx of 4.5%-24% of healthy humans, can cause invasive meningococcal disease (IMD). We hypothesized that distinct genotypic and/or phenotypic signatures might be found in carriage vs. invasive isolates. Carriage isolates were cultured from nasopharyngeal swabs (n = 267) collected from healthy students (aged 13-21 years) during the 2013 and 2014...
