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.

Changes in the incidence of acute bacterial meningitis caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae and the implications of serotype replacement in children in Colombia after mass vaccination with PCV10

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2022
IntroductionAcute bacterial meningitis (ABM) is a public health problem. The disease has reemerged after the introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) due to an increase in serotypes that are not covered.

New Pneumococcal Serotype 15D

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2021
The pneumococcal serogroup 15 comprises four capsular polysaccharide serotypes (15A, 15B, 15C, 15F) that collectively account for an impactful disease burden ([1][1], [2][2]). These four serotypes are defined by Quellung reaction typing, employing specific serologic factor sera to visualize ...

A synthetic biology approach for a vaccine platform against known and newly emerging serotypes of bluetongue virus [PDF]

, 2014
Bluetongue is one of the major infectious diseases of ruminants and is caused by Bluetongue virus (BTV), an arbovirus existing in nature in at least 26 distinct serotypes. Here, we describe the development of a vaccine platform for BTV.
