Klebsiella pneumoniae Glycoconjugate Vaccine Leads Based on Semi‐Synthetic O1 and O2ac Antigens
Glycans resembling lipopolysaccharides of Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) strains O1 and O2ac were chemically synthesized. The 27 glycans were used to screen the sera of infected patients and controls for antibody binding. The glycan array study identified epitopes for the development of semi‐synthetic glycoconjugate vaccines against K ...

Evaluation of the rate of Neisseria meningitides Infection in the United States from 2010 to 2020
Invasive meningococcal disease caused by is a serious disease that is deadly in 5–15% and incapacitating in 12–20% of cases. There are twelve strains known so far, out of which six serogroups (A, B, C, W, X, and Y) have been found to cause Invasive meningococcal disease. Infection can cause meningitis, septicemia, bacteremic pneumonia, and bacteremia
