A clonal analysis of Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A

Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, 1987
A typing scheme has recently been developed for Neisseria meningitidis serogroup A based on the clonal population structure of these bacteria. An international strain collection consisting of 423 group A strains isolated from 23 epidemics or outbreaks since 1963, as well as from older epidemics and numerous non-epidemic situations was used in the ...

Plasmids and serogroups in Campylobacter jejuni

APMIS, 1989
For epidemiological purposes identification of Campylobacter strains is usually based on surface antigen characteristics. Two different systems, one for heat‐stable (HS) and one for heat‐labile (HL) antigen have dominated. In earlier studies we found a great variability in the two antigen systems. The aim of the present investigation was to analyse the

Three new serogroups of Neisseria meningitidis

Journal of Biological Standardization, 1981
By employing bacterial agglutination absorption, passive hemagglutination, agarose gel double diffusion tests and counterimmunoelectrophoresis technique, the authors have carried out some studies concerning certain meningococcal strains, isolated within recent years in China, which are non-agglutinable with the diagnostic serogrouping seta A, B, C, D ...

A new serogroup (L) of Neisseria meningitidis

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1983
A strain of neisseria meningitidis (LCDC 78189) isolated from the mother of a 3-year-old male with meningococcal meningitis was found to be antigenically distinct from the known serogroups A, B, C, D, H, I, K, X, Y, Z, 29E, and W135; it was designated serogroup L.

Meningococcemia Caused by Serogroup W135

Archives of Internal Medicine, 1981
Meningococcemia caused by serogroup W135 occurred in four patients during a period of nine months. Three of the patients had hypogammaglobulinemia with normal hemolytic complement levels; the fourth had normal immunoglobulin levels one year after her illness. None of the patients had classic meningitis.
