Studies on Gonococcus Infection
The four colony types of several different strains of gonococci were isolated by selective transfers on agar. These colony variants differed in the degree of autoagglutination which occurred when they were grown in fluid medium. It was found that this clumping behavior was related to the colonial type, with type 2 isolates exhibiting the greatest autoagglutination followed by types 3, 1, and 4....
متن کاملIdentification of Penicillinase Producing Strains
The auxotypes and serogroups of 250 consecutive isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from Franceville, Gabon, including 33 penicillinase producing (PPNG) strains, were identified and the results tabulated for four periods. The PPNG and certain non-PPNG strains were isolated in clusters against a relatively stable pattern of non-PPNG biotypes. Most of the non-PPNG strains were non-requiring or prol...
متن کاملPenicillinase-producing gonococci in the Netherlands.
Probably most penicillinase-producing strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) isolated in the Netherlands are sent to the Laboratory for Chemotherapy of the Rijks Instituut voor de Volksgezondheid (RIV). The co-operation between the RIV and the Office of the Chief Medical Officer of Health (CMOH) has resulted in a quarterly review of the PPNG strains isolated by the RIV Laboratory for Chemother...
متن کاملSpectinomycin-resistant penicillinase-producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
Since March 1976, 7 cases of PPNG have been identified in Alaska. However, 3 of these cases occurred in 1980. We recommend that all physicians and other health care providers be alert for any patient diagnosed as having gonorrhea who gives a history of exposure in Southeast Asia or the Philippines. Such patients should be cultured, the lab slip marked "test for possible PPNG", and treatment giv...
متن کاملSimple test for identifying penicillinase-producing staphylococci.
The resistance of staphylococci to penicillin depends primarily on the ability of the organism to produce penicillinase (f3-lactamase). In some strains of potentially penicillin-resistant staphylococci, demonstration in vitro of resistance (i.e., of penicillinase production) may require not only prior induction of synthesis of the enzyme but also a highly sensitive method for detecting its pres...
