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

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 ...

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.

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,

Spectinomycin-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1977Neisseria gonorrhoeae resistant to high levels of spectinomycin (more than 2,048 microng/ml), were isolated from specimens obtained from a patient with urethritis. The bacterial resistance to spectinomycin is probably due to ribosomal changes that are a result of a chromosomal mutation. If spectinomycin fails to cure gonorrhea, spectinomycin resistance

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

Antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Current Opinion in Urology, 1999Despite a declining incidence of gonorrhea in much of the industrialized world, antimicrobial resistance continues to present a challenge to the treatment of gonococcal infections. Although no clinically significant resistance to the broad-spectrum cephalosporins has been identified, fluoroquinolone-resistant gonococcal strains are now prevalent in ...

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a bacterial pathogen responsible for gonorrhoea and various sequelae that tend to occur when asymptomatic infection ascends within the genital tract or disseminates to distal tissues. Global rates of gonorrhoea continue to rise, facilitated by the emergence of broad-spectrum antibiotic resistance that has recently afforded the ...
