Serotype-Dependent Effects on the Dynamics of Pneumococcal Colonization and Implications for Transmission

ABSTRACT Capsule-switch mutants were compared to analyze how serotype affects the success of Streptococcus pneumoniae (Spn) during colonization and transmission. Strains of multiple serotypes were tested in highly susceptible infant mice, both singly and in competitive assays. Our findings demonstra...
