متن کاملA new serogroup (L) of Neisseria meningitidis.
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. Anti-78189 serum specifically agglutinated the homologous strain and three other strains which were isolated from the father and two...
متن کاملDevelopment of a DNA Aptamer for Screening Neisseria meningitidis Serogroup B by Cell SELEX
Background: Artificial oligonucleotides like DNA or RNA aptamers can be used as biodiagnostic alternatives for antibodies to detect pathogens. Comparing to antibodies, artificial oligonucleotides are produced easily at lower costs and are more stable. Neisseria meningitidis, the causative agent of meningitis, is responsible for about 1% of infections in an epidemic period. Specific DNA aptamers...
متن کاملSerogroup B, electrophoretic type 15 Neisseria meningitidis in Canada.
Invasive meningococcal disease is nationally reportable in Canada. In recent years, a serogroup C genotype, designated electrophoretic type 15 (ET15), has been the most frequently isolated meningococcal genotype in Canada and has caused epidemics across the country. Between August 1993 and September 1995, there were 9 cases of invasive meningococcal disease caused by a variant of this genotype,...
متن کاملNeisseria meningitidis serogroup X sequence type 767 in Turkey.
Neisseria meningitidis is a common inhabitant of the nasopharyngeal tracts of healthy humans and is a significant cause of invasive infections such as meningitis in young children and adolescents worldwide (14). N. meningitidis has been classified into 13 serogroups on the basis of antigenic variation of the capsule, but only serogroups A, B, C, Y, and W-135 have commonly caused invasive infect...
