By using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, we demonstrated the genetic linkage among strains from CSF and nasopharynges of two children with pneumococcal meningitis.engAcesso AbertoGenetic relationship between Streptococcus pneumoniae isolates from nasopharyngeal and cerebrospinal fluid of two infants with pneumococcal meningitisArtigo10.1128/JCM.41.8.3970–3972.2003
