Enzymatic detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
In a study using a non-serological enzymatic approach for the detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in cervical and urethral swabs, the technique was shown to be technically feasible. The enzyme, 1, 2-propanediol oxidoreductase, was used as a presumptive diagnostic marker for N gonorrhoeae. Enzymatic activity was measured with a fluorometer. Two assay procedures were performed: (a) enzyme detectio...
متن کاملLaboratory detection of ciprofloxacin resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
During 1989 and 1990 strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae with reduced susceptibility to ciprofloxacin were isolated in laboratories across the United Kingdom. Treatment failures were associated with some of these infections. These strains were detected by quantitative susceptibility testing because the zone of inhibition around 5 micrograms ciprofloxacin discs shows little decrease in size even wi...
متن کاملA mouse intracerebral infection with Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
An intracerebral challenge of HPB black mice with Neisseria gonorrhoeae is described. In this mode, the mice died from 1 to 6 days after challenge, and T1 organisms were obtained up to the fifth day from brain, liver, kidney, and spleen. Experimental gonococcal vaccines gave good protection against the challenge.
متن کاملNeisseria gonorrhoeae
Two fi-lactamase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae were studied. The substrate profile, molecular weight, and isoelectric point of their ,8-lactamases were similar to those of the TEM-1 enzyme produced by many gram-negative bacilli. The gonococcal f8-lactamase was cell bound during exponential growth and was most likely located in the periplasm. Penicillin hydrolysis was efficient in i...
متن کاملPrepartal infection of the placenta with Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Placentas from 191 consecutive deliveries were cultured for Neisseria gonorrhoeae and other bacteria before being examined histologically. N gonorrhoeae was seen on direct microscopical examination and cultured from two placentas, one of which had chorioamnionitis and the other had a granulocytic invasion of the membranes. In both patients, rupture of the membranes had occurred two hours or les...
