Increased pathogenicity of pneumococcal serotype 1 is driven by rapid autolysis and release of pneumolysin [PDF]
, 2020 Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1 is the predominant cause of invasive pneumococcal disease in sub-Saharan Africa, but the mechanism behind its increased invasiveness is not well understood.

Serotyping of Clostridium difficile [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1988 A total of 246 live Clostridium difficile cultures were serotyped by a slide agglutination technique. Fifteen grouping antisera were produced which serotyped 98% of the cultures (241 of 246). Our results indicated that certain serogroups may have specific pathogenicity.

Cattle develop neutralizing antibodies to rotavirus serotypes which could not be isolated from faeces of symptomatic calves [PDF]
, 1991 Neutralizing antibodies against 10 serotypes of rotavirus were measured in sera from different age groups of German cattle. Only five of 143 sera did not neutralize heterologous serotypes.

Variability in Characterizing Escherichia coli from Cattle Feces: A Cautionary Tale
Microorganisms, 2018 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are diverse bacteria, with seven serogroups (O26, O45, O103, O111, O121, O145, O157; “Top 7”) of interest due to their predominance in human disease.

Seasonality and outbreak of a predominant Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1 clone from The Gambia: expansion of ST217 hypervirulent clonal complex in West Africa. [PDF]
, 2008 BACKGROUND: Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 1 causes > 20% of invasive disease, among all age groups combined, in The Gambia. In contrast, it is rarely detected in carriage studies. This study compares the molecular epidemiology of S.
