Neisseria gonorrhoeae Infections [PDF]
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease with a high morbidity burden. Despite having guidelines for its treatment, the incidence of the disease follows an increasing trend worldwide. This is mainly due to the appearance of antibiotic-resistant strains, inefficient diagnostic methods and poor sexual education. Without an effective vaccine available,

Analysis of the resistance to 7 antimicrobial agents in 100 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Objective: To analyse antimicrobial resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to 7 antimicrobial agents and the penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) and tetracycline resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae (TRNG) in Guangzhou during 2019.

Autoplaquing in Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Irregularly shaped autoplaques were observed on a lawn of two different strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Autoplaquing occurred on gonococcal genetic medium lacking arginine and was noninducible on complete gonococcal genetic medium. The cell density, incubation temperature, and agar base influenced autoplaquing.

Autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae [PDF]
Autolysis of Neisseria gonorrhoeae was studied under different conditions. It was found that low pH and temperature, as well as the presence of divalent cations, spermine, sucrose, and polyvinylpyrrolidone, stabilized nongrowing gonococci. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid alone promoted lysis, whereas lysozyme had only a limited additive effect.

Commensal Neisseria species share immune suppressive mechanisms with Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a highly adapted human sexually transmitted pathogen that can cause symptomatic infections associated with localized inflammation as well as asymptomatic and subclinical infections, particularly in females.
