Antibiotic sensitivity patterns of penicillinase-positive and penicillinase-negative strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated in Fukuoka, Japan.
Penicillinase production and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of penicillin G, amoxycillin, doxycycline, and spectinomycin were studied for 155 gonococcal strains isolated in Fukuoka, Japan, between April and December 1981. Of 155 isolates, 25 (16.1%) strains were identified as penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) by a rapid iodometric test. The antibiotic sensitivity of...
متن کاملEpidemiology and treatment of gonorrhoea caused by penicillinase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in Fukuoka, Japan.
Thirty strains of penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) were detected by a rapid iodometric method out of 206 strains isolated from patients with gonorrhoea between January and December 1981. Of the 30 patients, five of the nine women were prostitutes and 14 of the 21 men were infected by prostitutes in or around Fukuoka City, with the exception of one who was infected in Formosa...
متن کاملPenicillinase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated in Rotterdam.
This appears to be the first report of the isolation of a penicillinase-producing strain of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in the Netherlands. The presence of a penicillinase-producing gonococcal strain (PPGS) was demonstrated in two of a group of three patients with gonorrhoea. In addition, a penicillin- and ampicillin-sensitive gonococcus strain was isolated from all three patients. The PPGS was most ...
متن کاملIn vitro antimicrobial susceptibilities of penicillinase-producing and non-penicillinase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolated in Durban, South Africa.
The in vitro susceptibilities of 22 penicillinase-producing and 32 non-penicillinase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to 13 antimicrobial agents, including the new semisynthetic penicillins and cephalosporins, are reported. Ceftriaxone, ceftazidime, and cefotaxime were the most active agents tested; none of them had an MIC of greater than 0.03 micrograms/ml. Amoxycillin plus clavulani...
متن کاملIdentification of TEM-135 beta-lactamase in penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains in Japan.
Ten penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) strains isolated from 2000 to 2008 were characterized by multilocus sequence typing, multiantigen sequence typing, and plasmid typing. Sequence analysis showed that 8 strains contained a TEM-1 beta-lactamase gene. However, two other genetically distinct PPNG strains, isolated in 2004 and 2008, each contained a TEM-135 beta-lactamase on di...
