Streptococcus pneumoniae or S. pneumococcus has proved to be an enduring pathogen since its discovery in 1881. S. pneumoniae is most commonly found in cases of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), bacterial meningitis among adults, and sepsis and meningitis among children.

Penicillin-resistant pneumococcus
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1988Penicillin resistant pneumococci are now described world wide, with increasing recognition of the clinical implications of infection with these strains and the laboratory methods required for their identification. In presenting such a case, we suggest thatin vitro sensitivity testing with oxacillin discs affords the best method for detection of ...

Contrary to the accepted belief, pneumococcus meningitis is not uniformly fatal. The contradictory statements on this subject are apparently due to the individual experiences of various writers. For example, Kolmer1reports a mortality of 100 per cent in fourteen cases, arising from the ear, from the accessory sinuses or from no determinable focus ...

In 1917 I reported that out of 134 cases of pneumonia diagnosed by myself and colleagues in western Pennsylvania during the preceding eighteen months, there had been fourteen cases of pneumococcus meningitis, several of which, being Type I, were treated by the intravenous and intraspinal use of the antipneumococcus serum of the Rockefeller Institute ...

Summary and Conclusions A toxin has been produced from active growing cultures of pneumococcus which destroys leucocytes as demonstrated by the Neisser and Wechsberg method. This leucocidin has been demonstrated in aerobic and anaerobic cultures, from growths of both virulent and avirulent strains and from types I, II and III.
