Sensitivity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to penicillin in West Germany.
The sensitivity of gonococci to penicillin in Germany has largely decreased in the last 22 years. No significant decrease has occurred, however, in the last three years, but the results show that a slight tendency to decrease may be persisting.
متن کاملEmergence of penicillin resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae
Introduction: Since the beginning of the modern chemotherapeutic era, the treatment of gonorrhea has been dogged by the shifting antimicrobial susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Though penicillins have been recommended for treatment of gonorrhoeae, there have been reports of treatment failure with penicillins. In this study, we report the emergence of penicillin resistance N. gonorrhoeae ...
متن کاملEpidemiology of penicillin resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
OBJECTIVE To study the epidemiology of Neisseria gonorrhoeae that exhibit both chromosomal and plasmid-mediated resistance to penicillin. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 1589 strains of N gonorrhoeae isolated from patients attending St Mary's Hospital, London were tested for both their susceptibility to penicillin and for their auxotype and serotype. RESULTS Of the 940 non-penicillinase pr...
متن کاملSensitivity pattern of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to penicillin and screening for beta-lactamase production in Ibadan, Nigeria.
The few reports from Africa on sensitivity determinations of Neisseria gonorrhoeae suggest that there is an increasing resistance in the strains, as has been found in other parts of the world. In the current study, the penicillin sensitivities and β-lactamase production of 80 consecutive strains of N. gonorrhoeae isolated from cases of acute urethritis in African men in Ibadan were studied. Of ...
متن کاملTesting sensitivity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to spectinomycin.
A concentration of 16 mg/l spectinomycin incorporated in agar gave the best discrimination between Neisseria gonorrhoeae sensitive and resistant to spectinomycin. This method was compared with spectinomycin sensitivity testing with 25 micrograms or 100 micrograms discs. Both methods agreed fully for 197 spectinomycin sensitive and three spectinomycin resistant gonococci. The agar incorporation ...
