代表五个不同的肺炎球菌性结膜炎爆发的11株进行了检查的表型和遗传特征。所有菌株均无荚膜，所有菌株均对optochin敏感，胆汁可溶，Gen-Probe AccuProbe检测呈阳性。经DNA-DNA重组实验证实11株均为肺炎链球菌。
Eleven isolates representing five distinct outbreaks of pneumococcal conjunctivitis were examined for phenotypic and genetic characteristics. None of the strains possessed capsules, and all strains were susceptible to optochin, bile soluble, and Gen-Probe AccuProbe test positive. All 11 isolates were confirmed as Streptococcus pneumoniae by DNA-DNA reassociation experiments.
