Modified MLVA for Genotyping Queensland Invasive Streptococcus pneumoniae.
<h4>Background</h4>Globally, over 800 000 children under five die each year from infectious diseases caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae. To understand genetic relatedness between isolates, study transmission routes, assess the impact of human interventions e.g. vaccines, and determine in...
