Metronidazole resistance in Trichomonas vaginalis from highland women in Papua New Guinea

13 Nov 2009

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of the sexually transmissible protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis in the highlands of Papua New Guinea (PNG) has been reported to be as high as 46% and although not previously studied in Papua New Guinea, clinical resistance against metronidazole (Mz), the drug most commonly used to treat trichomoniasis, is well documented worldwide. This study was primarily aimed at assessing...
