Abstract excerpt
Objectives: To ascertain whether the antimicrobial susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates with differing susceptibilities to penicillin is associated with genogroups (GGs) and combined mutation patterns in PBP2 (penA), the multiple transfer resistance repressor (MtrR; mtrR) and porin B (PorB; porB). Methods: The susceptibility of 146 clinical N. gonorrhoeae isolates to penicillin was determined using...
