Abstract

Considering the significant role of commensal Neisseria carried in the pharynx on the variation of N.meningitidis and the acquisition of its resistance genes, understanding the true Neisseria population colonizing the human pharynx is of great significance. In this study, we carried out a five-month continuous survey of oropharyngeal carriage in a certain healthy population to reveal the long-term carriage status of different Neisseria species. Totally, 419 Neisseria strains were isolated from 203 out of 205 pharyngeal swabs of 49 participants. Using combined methods (MALDI-TOF-MS, rplF sequencing and genome sequencing), the isolates were identified as N.subflava (n = 290), N.mucosa (n = 52), N.oralis (n = 8), N.elongata group (n = 6) and non-species-confirmed (n = 63). N.subflava was isolated from all individuals and 168 swabs (81.95 %). N.mucosa, N.oralis, N.elongata and non-species-confirmed were isolated from 25 (45), 6 (7), 4 (5) and 20 (53) individuals (swabs) respectively. It was common that multiple Neisseria spp. or multiple clones of one species were isolated from a single sample. An identical strain could be isolated frequently from a single person within five months. These results indicate that Neisseria spp. and N.subflava are ubiquitous in human pharynx and both have diverse population; we should pay more attention to them when studying N.meningitidis or other respiratory pathogens; robust and handy method for identifying Neisseria species remains to be develope…

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
