Differential Adherence Capacities of Clinical Isolates of Streptococcus pneumoniae at Different Growth States to Human Respiratory Epithelial Cells (in vitro)

This study was conducted to evaluate the adherence and invasion capacity of four clinically important pneumococcal serotypes at early-, mid- and late-log phases at 1 and 3 h incubation times to A549 cells-a human respiratory epithelial cell. We observed that adherence capacity varied among the diffe...
