Captain Ellis began an investigation into the grouping of the various strains of "meningococci" -- the organism causing cerebro-spinal meningitis, with the ultimate object of obtaining a more efficient anti-serum for the treatment of this disease. ❋ Unknown (1921)
Meningococcal disease is caused by bacteria (germs) called meningococci, also known as ❋ Unknown (2010)
Some of the diagnostic materials for meningococci, and Chlamydia are monoclonals. ❋ Unknown (2008)
Isatis I. indigotica or I. tinctoria, also known as da qing ye in Traditional Chinese Medicine, contains indican and isatin B among other compounds and is known to have potent antibacterial properties against staphylococci, pneumococci, and meningococci, which means that it is useful for virtually all common bacterial infections. ❋ JOHN LUST (2003)
Serogroup A and C meningococci are the main causes of epidemic meningitis. ❋ Unknown (1998)
Lehner says his company is also the local representative for the Carlos J. Finlay Institute's meningococci vaccine, which was tested with "excellent" results in Antioquia, where 20,000 children were inoculated with doses donated by the Cuban ❋ Unknown (1994)
Whenever a person sees a child with fever or any symptom, he immediately thinks about the possibility of meningococci. ❋ Unknown (1994)
The U.S. has it -- not the vaccine but the bacteria, the meningococci -- and a few European countries have it. ❋ Unknown (1990)
We began to work and we developed the vaccine against meningococci meningitis type B, in a few years. ❋ Unknown (1989)
We had the fight against meningococci meningitis type B. ❋ Unknown (1989)
Currently, our country has -- and it is the only country in the world that has it -- the vaccine against meningococci type B. ❋ Unknown (1989)
Right now we have a monopoly on the production of the meningococci vaccine and we are carrying out a massive vaccination plan against meningococcal meningitis which, up to now, has been a curse. ❋ Unknown (1989)
Dr. Arkwright pointed out in his report to the D.M.S. that of 349 "contacts" examined (sisters who had nursed cases, men who had slept in huts along with a recent case of meningitis, etc.), 345 afforded a negative result, and only four a positive; that is to say, afforded growths of meningococci from their throats – a percentage of 1.12. ❋ John George (1918)
A classification of meningococci based on group agglutination with monovalent immune serum. ❋ John George (1918)
An infection of the membranes around the brain and spinal cord with meningococci bacteria, which inhabit the throat and spread through coughs and sneezes. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Niesseria meningitidis strain NMB was initially extracted from whole meningococci by the phenol-water method. ❋ Susu Zughaier Et Al. (2010)
It has therefore been disturbing to see reports from most countries in recent years that meningococci have also begun to be more resistant to antibiotics. ❋ Unknown (2010)
This means that they have a hard time competing with susceptible meningococci as soon as they find themselves in an antibiotic-free environment. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Örebro University and Örebro University Hospital in Sweden shows that there has not been any increase in resistant meningococci in Sweden over the last 15 years. ❋ Unknown (2010)
Groups B and C are most often identified during sporadic outbreaks, while Group A meningococci appear to be the cause of epidemics. ❋ Unknown (2010)
