To know the types of meningococcal strains in Spain, we serotyped and subtyped 743 Neisseria meningitidis isolates recovered between 1990 and 1992 from patients. A great number of serogroup B, serogroup C and non-groupable meningococci reacted with the serotyping reagents while many serogroup C and non-groupable isolates did not react with the serosubtyping reagents (78.2% and 54.8% respectively); only 8.9% of serogroup B meningococci were non-subtypeable (NST). Distribution of serotypes was similar in serogroup C and in non-groupable strains. Isolates showed great variability in antigenic phenotypes (71 in serogroup B, 20 in serogroup C and 25 in non-groupable meningococci). The most frequent antigenic combinations were 4:P1.15 (39.8%) in serogroup B, 2b:NST (55.8%) in serogroup C and 2b:NST (35.6%) in non-groupable meningococci.
为了解西班牙脑膜炎球菌菌株的类型,我们对1990年至1992年间从患者身上分离出的743株脑膜炎奈瑟菌进行了血清分型和亚型分型。大量B群、C群脑膜炎球菌和不可分型脑膜炎球菌与血清分型试剂发生反应,而许多C群和不可分型分离株不与血清亚型分型试剂发生反应(分别为78.2%和54.8%);只有8.9%的B群脑膜炎球菌不可进行亚型分型(NST)。C群和不可分型菌株的血清型分布相似。分离株在抗原表型上表现出很大的变异性(B群71种,C群20种,不可分型脑膜炎球菌25种)。最常见的抗原组合是B群中的4:P1.15(39.8%)、C群中的2b:NST(55.8%)和不可分型脑膜炎球菌中的2b:NST(35.6%)。
