Neisseria mucosa Does Not Inhibit the Growth of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

چکیده
Antibiotic-sparing treatments are required to prevent the further emergence of antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Commensal species have previously been found inhibit growth pathogenic species. For example, a previous study that three out five historical isolates mucosa could N. In this study, we used agar overlay assays assess if 24 circulating and 28 Although pitting around each colony created an optical illusion decreased gonorrhoeae, no evidence inhibition (n = 24). contrast, positive controls Streptococcus pneumoniae Escherichia coli demonstrated strong inhibitory effect against

Neisseria gonorrhoeae: does it exist?
Objective-To determine whether the host immune response to gonorrhoea provides limited serovar specific protection from reinfection. Subjects-508 episodes of gonorrhoea diagnosed at a city centre genitourinary medicine clinic including 22 patients with multiple infections over a 4 year period. Methods-Patients with recurrent gonococcal infection were analysed with respect to the initial and sub...
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 کاملNeisseria gonorrhoeae
Expression of Type IV pili by the bacteria! pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae appears to be essential for colonization of the human host. Several N. gonorrhoeae gene products have been recently identified which bear homology to proteins invoived in pilus assembly and protein export in other bacterial systems. We report here the isolation and characterization of transposon insertion mutants in N. g...
