Capsular types of Klebsiella pneumoniae revisited by wzc sequencing. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Capsule is an important virulence factor in bacteria. A total of 78 capsular types have been identified in Klebsiella pneumoniae. However, there are limitations in current typing methods. We report here the development of a new genotyping method based on

CRISPR Typing Increases the Discriminatory Power of Streptococcus agalactiae Typing Methods
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 We explored the relevance of a Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-based genotyping tool for Streptococcus agalactiae typing and we compared this method to current molecular methods [multi locus sequence typing (MLST) and ...

Molecular Epidemiology of Pasteurella multocida Associated with Bovine Respiratory Disease Outbreaks
Animals, 2022 Studies that characterize bovine respiratory disease (BRD)-associated Pasteurella multocida isolates are scarce compared with research on isolates from other hosts and clinical backgrounds. In the present study, 170 P.

THE CAPSULAR POLYSACCHARIDE OF PNEUMOCOCCUS TYPE IX [PDF]
The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1966 The capsular polysaccharide of Type IX pneumococcus contains D-glucose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, and D-glucuronic acid. Complete hydrolysis is difficult. All of the N-acetylglucosamine is resistant to oxidation by periodate, but the other two sugars are degraded in part. Chemical and quantitative serological data are consistent with the linkage of two D-

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022 Pathogen typing is pivotal to detecting the emergence of high-risk clones in hospital settings and to limit their spread. Unfortunately, the most commonly used typing methods (i.e., pulsed-field gel electrophoresis [PFGE], multilocus sequence typing ...

Genomic diversity and molecular epidemiology of Pasteurella multocida.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Pasteurella multocida is a bacterial pathogen with the ability to infect a multitude of hosts including humans, companion animals, livestock, and wildlife. This study used bioinformatic approaches to explore the genomic diversity of 656 P.

Population-based analysis of invasive nontypeable pneumococci reveals that most have defective capsule synthesis genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Since nasopharyngeal carriage of pneumococcus precedes invasive pneumococcal disease, characteristics of carriage isolates could be incorrectly assumed to reflect those of invasive isolates.
