Bacterial outer membrane vesicles and vaccine applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Vaccines based on outer membrane vesicles (OMV) were developed more than 20 years ago against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B. These nano-sized structures exhibit remarkable potential for immunomodulation of immune responses and delivery of “self ...

Molecular epidemiology of meningococcal disease in Northern Ghana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Meningococcal disease remains a major public health concern, especially in the African Meningitis Belt where large meningitis epidemics with attack rates of up to 500/100,000 recur every 8-12 years.

Application of PCR-based serogrouping of selected Salmonella serotypes in Malaysia

open access: yesJournal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2009
Background: Differentiation of Salmonella enterica into its serogroups is important for epidemiological study. The objective of the study was to apply a multiplex PCR targeting serogroups A, B, C1, D, E and Vi-positive strains of Salmonella enterica ...

Genomic comparison of serogroups O159 and O170 with other Vibrio cholerae serogroups

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Of the hundreds of Vibrio cholerae serogroups, O1 and O139 are the main epidemic-causing ones. Although non-O1/non-O139 serogroups rarely cause epidemics, the possibility exists for strains within them to have pathogenic potential.We selected 25 representative strains within 16 V.

Scientific Opinion on VTEC-seropathotype and scientific criteria regarding pathogenicity assessment [PDF]

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2013
During 2007-2010, 13 545 confirmed human VTEC infections and 777 haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS) cases were reported in the EU; isolates from 85 % of cases were not fully serotyped and therefore could not be classified using the Karmali seropathotype ...
