Actual (reported)Vaccine antigen deficient (VAD) B. pertussis clinical isolates
We screened a panel of 265 B. pertussis clinical isolates collected from 9 European countries. We used previously developed ELISA to measure the antigen expression of pertussis toxin (PT), filamentous haemagglutinin (FHA), pertactin (PRN) and fimbriae 2\&3 (Fim2\&3). In addition, we used sequencing to further characterize the pertactin gene of the bacteria.

Study of genetic changes in the B. pertussis genomic content measured by specific molecular methods
We studied genetic changes in the main virulence genes of B. pertussis. We genotyped pertussis toxin promoter (ptxP), pertactin (PRN), fimbriae3 (Fim3) and pertussis toxin subunit A (ptxA). Serotyping of Fimbriae (Fim), Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) and Multiple-Locus Variable number tandem repeat Analysis (MLVA) were used for further genomic analysis.

Association between vaccine antigen deficient (VAD) B. pertussis clinical isolates and their association to the introduction of acellular pertussis vaccination (ACV)
We studied the association between the frequency of VAD B. pertussis clinical isolates and their association to the introduction of ACV. Data of vaccination schedules by country and number of VAD isolates were collected and compared.

A group of culture positive whooping cough patients.
B. pertussis strains has been collected from the nasopharynx of the patients during the clinical visit
Registry-reported names are shown in full. Names without a link have not yet been matched to a Syfrah profile.
Study population consists of pertussis culture positive patients from nine European countries. From this population, B. pertussis clinical isolates are collected and studied.
