Abstrakt: A multiplexed opsonophagocytosis assay (MOPA) was developed as a cost-effective, high-throughput biological assay to evaluate the efficacy of pneumococcal vaccines by in vitro measurement of opsonophagocytic activity of anti-capsular antibodies. Here, we report draft genomes of the 36 strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae developed for use in the reference pneumococcal MOPA.
Competing Interests: The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) has intellectual property rights to several opsonophagocytosis assay reagents developed in M.H.N.'s laboratory. All authors are affiliated with UAB.
