The ability of different Group A streptococcus strains to adhere to Detroit 562 or HaCat monolayers was calculated after conducting a 1-h adherence assay. Data combines three individual experiments and are shown as the mean+SD. (a) Data expressed as a ratio of HaCat : Detroit 562 binding. (b) Data were grouped by inferred emm pattern and analyzed by one-way analysis of variance with Tukey's multiple comparisson test. *p < (c) Adherence of emm pattern D strains was grouped by site of infection and analyzed by unpaired t-test.
