Increasing trend of multiple resistance and genomic mobility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to penicillin and quinolone [PDF]
, 2005 A significant decline of gonorrhea incidence has been observed during the years 1990-99. However, a slight increase in the number of cases has been reported in 2000. In addition, an increase in resistant strains has been found in Thailand. In this study,

Application of firefly luciferase assay for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to antimicrobial drug sensitivity testing [PDF]
The development of a rapid method for determining microbial susceptibilities to antibiotics using the firefly luciferase assay for adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is documented. The reduction of bacterial ATP by an antimicrobial agent was determined to be a
