In Vitro Susceptibility to Closthioamide among Clinical and Reference Strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Neisseria gonorrhoeae is one of the leading antimicrobial resistance threats worldwide. This study determined the MICs of closthioamide to be 0.008 to 0.5 mg/liter for clinical N. gonorrhoeae strains and related species. Cross-resistance with existing antimicrobial resistance was not detected, indicating that closthioamide could be used to treat drug-resistant N. gonorrhoeae.

Monitoring Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Isolated from Bangladesh during 1997-2006: Emergence and Pattern of Drug-resistant Isolates

Gonorrhoea is one of the most common sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in developing countries, and the emergence of resistance to antimicrobial agents in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is a major obstacle in the control of gonorrhoea. Periodical monitoring of antimicrobial susceptibility of N. gonorrhoeae is essential for the early detection of emergence of drug resistance. In total, 1,767 gonococ...

Importance of multidrug efflux pumps in the antimicrobial resistance property of clinical multidrug-resistant isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

The contribution of drug efflux pumps in clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae that express extensively drug-resistant or multidrug-resistant phenotypes has heretofore not been examined. Accordingly, we assessed the effect on antimicrobial resistance of loss of the three gonococcal efflux pumps associated with a known capacity to export antimicrobials (MtrC-MtrD-MtrE, MacA-MacB, and NorM) ...

A Study Of The Antimicrobial Susceptibility Pattern Of Neisseria Gonorrhoeae

Background and objectives: Rapidly emerging antimicrobial resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates to currently recommended antibiotics is a setback for effective treatment and control of disease. This study was carried out to determine the antimicrobial susceptibility profile in the isolates obtained from female sexual workers and male patients attending STI clinics in Hyderabad. Materials...

A 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...

The activity of rosoxacin, fosfomycin, cefotiam, and spectinomycin on beta-lactamase producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae.

We measured the activity of rosoxacin, fosfomycin, cefotiam, and spectinomycin against 51 isolates of beta-lactamase producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae, all of which were susceptible to each drug at sufficient concentrations. The development of strains of penicillinase producing N gonorrhoeae (PPNG) which are resistant to spectinomycin can therefore be avoided, as there are alternative drugs.
