A technique to detect Neisseria gonorrhoeae directly in clinical specimens was developed using a modified DNA-hybridization method. It uses the gonococcal cryptic plasmid as the radiolabeled probe, can detect as few as 100 colony-forming units of N gonorrhoeae or as little as 0.1 pg of purified
BACKGROUND
In fluoroquinolone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the amino acid mutations in the fluoroquinolone-resistant determining region (QRDR) of the parC gene are an important factor. The aim of the present study was to develop a rapid detection method of a serine 88 to proline substitution in
Recently, a reduction in the antimicrobial susceptibility of clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to newer fluoroquinolones including levofloxacin in vitro has been recognized in Japan. We examined the quinolone resistance mechanisms in N. gonorrhoeae isolates from a patient with clinical
(ABSTRACTOne hundred and fifty five strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae were regrown from 216 freeze dried cultures originally isolated in Zimbabwe. The gonococci were from men (61 strains) and women (39 strains) attending a referral sexually transmitted diseases (STD) clinic, from women presenting for
OBJECTIVE
This study was carried out to analyze the epidemiology of gonorrhea based on antimicrobial susceptibility testing, auxotyping and serotyping in New Delhi, India.
METHODS
Sixty gonococcal isolates from males with urethritis, females with endocervicitis and their sexual contacts were
Adherence of mycoplasmas to specific tissue surfaces is a crucial step in the establishment of infection. Several pathogenic mycoplasmas are flask-shaped and possess specialized tips that permit a highly oriented surface parasitism of host target cells. Mycoplasma pneumoniae, which causes primary
