In a 12-month period, oxidase-positive, Gram-negative cocci showing similar characteristics in biochemical tests have been isolated from the urogenital tract of 39 male and female patients. Although these organisms superficially resemble Neisseria gonorrhoeae, biochemical characterization and the results of DNA base composition analysis indicate that they do not belong to the genus Neisseria. T...
We identified a ceftriaxone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolate in a patient in Canada. This isolate carried the penA-60 allele, which differs substantially from its closest relative, mosaic penA XXVII (80% nucleotide identity). Epidemiologic and genomic data suggest spread from Asia. Antimicrobial susceptibility surveillance helps prevent spread of highly resistant N. gonorrhoeae strains.
Serogroup W Neisseria meningitidis was the main cause of invasive meningococcal disease in Chile during 2012. The case-fatality rate for this disease was higher than in previous years. Genotyping of meningococci isolated from case-patients identified the hypervirulent lineage W:P1.5,2:ST-11, which contained allele 22 of the fHbp gene.
Two antigen preparations, the soluble antigen and a fraction 1 thereof, isolated in the course of a systematic study of the various antigens of the virulent gonococcus, have been investigated for their ability to serve as antigens for the detection of antibody in patients infected with the gonococcus. The soluble antigen was reactive with 88.2% of the sera from infected females, and fraction 1 ...
Cephalosporin-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a major public health concern. N. gonorrhoeae of multiantigen sequence type G1407 and multilocus sequence type 1901 is an internationally spreading cephalosporin-resistant clone. We detected 4 cases of infection with this clone in China and analyzed resistance determinants by using N. gonorrhoeae sequence typing for antimicrobial resistance.
Most Neisseria species are gram-negative cocci or diplococci; currently, N. elongata is the only species of human origin with a bacillary morphology. Here, we report isolation and characterization of eight strains of another bacillary Neisseria species from human infections. The organisms caused or contributed to either oral cavity-related or respiratory tract infections, and two strains were i...
The Haemophilus-Neisseria identification (HNID) panel (American MicroScan, Sacramento, Calif.) is a 4-h microdilution format system for identification of Haemophilus and Neisseria spp., Branhamella (Moraxella) catarrhalis, and Gardnerella vaginalis. The HNID panel was evaluated by using 423 clinical isolates and stock strains of these organisms, and HNID identifications were compared with those...
Meningococcal disease occurs as sporadic cases in developed countries, with the occasional emergence of new clones of Neisseria meningitidis. Here, we report the genome sequence of N. meningitidis strain LNP27256, an isolate of sequence type 11 linked to a recent outbreak among men who have sex with men in Europe.
Of 65 ciprofloxacin-resistant, clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae, 5 isolates exhibited ParC mutations previously undescribed in the gonococcus. For isolates containing two ParC mutations (the Ser-87-->Ile and Glu-91-->Gly mutations and the Gly-85-->Cys and Arg116-->Leu mutations) the MICs of ciprofloxacin (8.0 to 64.0 microg/ml) were higher than those for the isolate containing the sin...
Non-gonococcal non-meningococcal Neisseria sp. normally inhabits the upper respiratory tract in human beings. There are four recognized species within the genus: N. sicca, N. mucosa, N. subflava and N. flavescens. They have low pathogenicity. Among them, Neisseria mucosa and N. sicca have been described to cause endocarditis. To our knowledge, this is the fourth reported case of prosthetic valv...
