Neisseria gonorrhoeae (Gonorrhoea)
1994Gonorrhoea is an infection of the mucosal surfaces of the genitourinary tract and is mainly transmitted by sexual intercourse. In men an acute purulent urethritis usually develops after an incubation period of about 3–5 days. In women a precise incubation period is difficult to determine as approximately 70% or more of infections may cause no symptoms.

This chapter analyzes Neisseria gonorrhoeae, which reportedly caused 583,405 infections in the United States in 2018, an increase of 63% since 2014. Gonococci attach primarily to columnar or cuboidal epithelial cells via pili and outer membrane proteins; the gonococcus penetrates between and through the cells to submucosal areas, where it elicits a ...

Physiology of Neisseria gonorrhoeae
1980Publisher Summary This chapter explores that gonorrhoea is one of the most commonly reported communicable diseases. With the appearance of antibiotic-resistant strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (N. gonorrhoeae), which are thought to be the result of an intergeneric conjugal transfer, the possible loss of efficacy of drug treatment in control of this ...

Neisseria gonorrhoeae in Children
Pediatric Annals, 1994By culturing for N gonorrhoeae in cases of neonates and children with conjunctivitis, vaginitis, urethritis, proctitis, sepsis, and arthritis, gonococcal infections can be identified easily. They are then treated with ceftriaxone. In neonates, the mother and her sexual contacts also should be treated. In children, a full evaluation for sexual contacts,

Detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1985To the Editor.— In the article entitled "Evaluation of an Enzyme Immunoassay for Detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in an Adolescent Population," by Demetriou et al, 1 the authors provide some incomplete information about gonorrhea screening using Gonozyme. This test is only useful in urethral and cervical specimens. It cannot be used to detect rectal

Transformation in Neisseria gonorrhoeae
2019Laboratory techniques for transformation of the pathogenic Neisseria are well developed, and take advantage of the natural transformability of these species. More recently, these techniques have been successfully applied to some nonpathogenic species of Neisseria as well.

Genotyping ng of Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Current Opinion in Infectious Diseases, 1998Genotyping of Neisseria gonorrhoeae has proved highly discriminatory. It has been used to differentiate between isolates of the same serovar, to determine the genetic relatedness of antibiotic resistant isolates and to identify isolates from sexual contacts. This level of resolution has been possible because Neisseria gonorrhoeae exhibits a high degree
