Exploring Streptococcus pneumoniae capsular typing through MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and machine-learning algorithms in Argentina: Identifying prevalent NON PCV13 serotypes alongside PCV13 serotypes

Introduction: Laboratory surveillance of Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes plays a crucial role in effectively implementing vaccines to prevent invasive pneumococcal diseases. The conventional method of serotyping, known as the Quellung reaction, is both time-consuming and expensive. However, the e...
