a
Cam853 is serologically unique from other serogroup 10 members and serotype 39. Pneumococcal strains SSISP10A, SSISP10B, SSISP10C, SSISP10F, and SSISP39 are from Statens Serum Institut (SSI) (23) and represent serotypes 10A, 10B, 10C, 10F, and 39, respectively. All group-specific, type-specific, and factor-specific (FS) antisera are also from SSI. Cam853 reacted only with FS10d in the agglutination reaction. Negative reactions (−) and positive reactions (+) are shown.
