Abstract Streptococcus pneumoniae is a leading cause of pneumonia and meningitis worldwide. Many different serotypes co-circulate endemically in any one location 1,2 . The extent mechanisms spread vaccine-driven changes fitness antimicrobial resistance remain largely unquantified. Here using geolocated genome sequences from South Africa ( n = 6,910, collected 2000 to 2014), we developed models reconstruct spread, pairing detailed human mobility data genomic data. Separately, estimated the...
The introduction of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCV) into the national immunization programs (NIPs) has significantly reduced number infections. However, infections caused by isolates non-vaccine serotypes (NVT) started spreading shortly thereafter and strains NVT 19A have become main cause invasive disease burden worldwide. aim study was to characterize serotype pneumococci GPSC1/CC320 circulating in Poland before PCV Polish NIP 2017 compare them from other countries where PCVs were...
Abstract The aim of this study was to characterize and compare selected Lactobacillus strains originating from different environments (cow milk hen feces) with respect their applicative potential colonize gastrointestinal track chickens before hatching an egg. In vitro phenotypic characterization lactobacilli included the investigation important prerequisites for persistence in tract, such as a capability survive presence bile salts at low pH , enzymatic sugar metabolic profiles, adhesion...
Abstract Background Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) represents an important human pathogen, responsible for respiratory and invasive infections in the community. The efficacy of polysaccharide conjugate vaccines formulated against pneumococci is reduced by phenomenon serotype replacement population this pathogen. aim current study was to obtain compare complete genomic sequences two pneumococcal isolates, both belonging ST320 but differing serotype. Results Here, we report isolates...
