Understanding the nasopharyngeal carriage dynamics of Streptococcus pneumoniae and other microbiota in Malawian children and adults

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Streptococcus pneumoniae naturally colonises the human nasopharynx, where it normally resides as a commensal. However, any change in the bacterial and host condition in the nasopharynx may lead to invasive pneumococcal disease. The human nasopharynx is also home to a broad range of other microbiota, which interact with S. pneumoniae, consequently impacting on its carriage dynamics. This thesis investigated the car...
