Differentiation of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates requiring proline, citrulline, and uracil by plasmid content, serotyping, and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
A combination of DNA macrorestriction analysis using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and a serotyping method using three panels of monoclonal antibody was used to discriminate 43 epidemiologically unrelated Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates requiring proline, citrulline, and uracil (PCU-) into 35 groups. This indicates that PCU- isolates of N. gonorrhoeae are not clonal.
متن کاملA study on the frequency of vaginal species of Mycoplasma genitalium, Gardnerella vaginalis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae among pregnant women by PCR technique
Bacterial vaginosis or non-specific vaginitis describes the disease caused by a change in the normal Flora of the vagina, which leads to the elimination of Lactobacilli, generating hydrogen peroxide and excess growth of bacteria, particularly anaerobic bacteria. This disease is the most prevalent infection of the female genital tract, and the rate of frequency of anaerobic bacteria, specificall...
متن کاملNeisseria gonorrhoeae by restriction fragment length polymorphisms
Objective-To characterise Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates by restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in ribosomal RNA genes. Design-Generation of RFLP patterns by HincII restriction of rRNA genes followed by hybridisation with a nonradioactive labelled broad spectrum 16 + 23S rRNA gene probe. This typing method was developed and compared with MAb based serotyping. Specimens-Forty three...
متن کاملMolecular surveillance of clinical Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates in Russia.
The choice of adequate methods for epidemiological purposes remains a challenging problem in Neisseria gonorrhoeae molecular monitoring. In this study, the collection of geographically unrelated gonococci (n = 103) isolated in Russian clinics was comparably tested by (i) a traditional serotyping scheme, (ii) por typing, (iii) Neisseria gonorrhoeae multiantigen sequence typing (NG-MAST), and (iv...
متن کاملA typing system for neisseria gonorrhoeae based on biotinylated oligonucleotide probes to PIB gene variable regions.
The porin proteins PIA and PIB of Neisseria gonorrhoeae are serotyping antigens for the serovar classification system and leading candidates for gonococcal vaccine development. Although serotyping has been a useful tool, this method can be insensitive to critical sequence changes in the por gene, including those in surface-exposed variable regions (VRs). A sensitive and specific typing system f...
