Pneumococcal colinisation models of the nasopharynx : the role of virulence factors and host immunity during colonisation
The human nasopharynx is the most important ecological niche for Streptococcus pneumoniae and the establishment of nasopharyngeal carriage is an essential pre-requisite to invasive pneumococcal disease. Virulence factors which mediate long term carriage and the immunogenicity of individual bacterial...
