Organism resembling Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 1987
A problem isolate resembling Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Neisseria meningitidis is reported. Growth and biochemical characteristics indicated the organism to be N. meningitidis, whereas serological characteristics indicated it to be N. gonorrhoeae. This vaginal isolate may be a genetically transformed gonococcus with the ability to utilize maltose ...

Species-specificity of the BamA component of the bacterial outer membrane protein-assembly machinery. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
The BamA protein is the key component of the Bam complex, the assembly machinery for outer membrane proteins (OMP) in gram-negative bacteria. We previously demonstrated that BamA recognizes its OMP substrates in a species-specific manner in vitro.

Early detection of cerebrospinal fluid/serum glucose ratio: A promising value for mortality prognosis in patients with acute bacterial meningitis

open access: yesJournal of General and Family Medicine, Volume 26, Issue 4, Page 305-311, July 2025.
This study revealed that a glucometer‐based measurement significantly improved the turnaround time required for CSF/serum glucose ratio measurement compared to conventional laboratory tests, which could be considered a reliable aid to the mortality prognosis.
