Pathogenic Neisseria meningitidis isolates contain a polysaccharide capsule that is the main virulence determinant for this bacterium. Thirteen capsular polysaccharides have been described, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy has enabled dete

Following the introduction of effective protein-polysaccharide conjugate vaccines against capsular group C meningococcal disease in Europe, meningococci of capsular group B remain a major cause of death and can result in debilitating sequelae. The ou

Acquisition of iron from host complexes is mediated by four surface-located receptors of Neisseria meningitidis. The HmbR protein and heterodimeric HpuAB complex bind to haemoglobin whilst TbpBA and LbpBA bind iron-loaded transferrin and lactoferrin

Neisseria meningitidis lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has adjuvant properties that can be exploited to assist vaccine immunogenicity. The modified penta-acylated LPS retains the adjuvant properties of hexa-acylated LPS but has a reduced toxicity profile. I

Functional antibody assays can broadly be divided into three categories: neutralisation, serum bactericidal antibody (SBA) and opsonophagocytic assays (OPA). These biological assays are generally more complex than antibody-binding counterparts. They

Antibody titre is a measure of the presence and amount of antibodies specific to an antigen that are present in the blood. In particular, the titre of an antibody sample is a measure of the antibody concentration determined under a defined set of con
