Streptomycin resistant gonorrhoea.
The readiness with which many organisms develop resistance to streptomycin is well recognized; Willcox (1953) ventured to predict that "should streptomycin be widely used for gonorrhoea it is possible that its efficiency may decline". At the Liverpool Royal Infirmary during the past 4 years routine treatment of male patients suffering from gonorrhoea has been by a single injection of streptomyc...
متن کاملStreptomycin-resistant gonorrhoea in the female.
There were 17,845 infections of gonorrhoea reported in 1955 by the V.D. clinics of England and Wales. How many other cases were treated and not reported is unknown. Several reasons have been advanced to explain why gonorrhoea should still be so prevalent after 10 years of penicillin therapy in spite of the known effectiveness of this antibiotic. The chief reason is surely the difficulty of erad...
متن کاملTreatment of gonorrhoea with streptomycin.
Although a number of papers on the treatment of gonorrhoea with streptomycin have been published during the last four years, few reports have come from Great Britain. Chinn and others (1947) obtained seventy cures out of 72 patients who were given 0-2 to 0-5 g. streptomycin, and Pulaski (1947) reported success in nine cases. Willcox (1948), employing a single injection of 0-2 to 0-6 g. had succ...
متن کاملRelapse of gonorrhoea after treatment with penicillin or streptomycin.
The earliest workers with penicillin observed that it was extremely effective in vitro against the gonococcus. Florey and his co-workers (Abraham, Chain, Fletcher, Gardner, Heatley, Jennings, and Florey, 1941) found the gonococcus to be the most sensitive of a wide variety of pathogens they tested against penicillin. Clinical experience supported laboratory findings, and penicillin became, and ...
متن کاملAccumulation of 14C-streptomycin by streptomycin-sensitive and streptomycin-resistant group H streptococci.
Three streptomycin-resistant mutants of group H streptococcus, strain Challis, were examined for ability to accumulate (14)C-streptomycin. Although the mutants exhibited different levels of transformation, only the streptomycin-sensitive parent Challis strain accumulated significant amounts of (14)C-streptomycin. It appears that impermeability to streptomycin does not necessarily result in redu...
