Polysaccharide encapsulated bacteria, frequently referred to simply as encapsulated bacteria and less precisely called encapsulated organisms, are a group of bacteria that have an outer covering, a bacterial capsule, made of polysaccharide. ==Examples of encapsulated bacteria== *''Hemophilus influenzae type b'' (Hib) *''Streptococcus pneumoniae'' (pneumococcus)〔 *''Neisseria meningitidis'' (meningococcus)〔 *Group B streptococcus (GBS)〔 *''Klebsiella pneumoniae'' *''Salmonella typhi''〔Lee CJ, Lee LH, Koizumi K. (2002) Polysaccharide Vaccines for Prevention of Encapsulated Bacterial Infections: Part 1. ''Infect Med'' 19(3) 127-133. (Partial Free Text ).〕 A popular mnemonic to remember most of the encapsulated bacteria is the SHiNE SKiS bacteria (S. pneumo, Hib, N. meningitidis, E. Coli, Salmonella, Klebsiella, Group B Strep). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「polysaccharide encapsulated bacteria」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
