2023-10-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> The global resurgence of syphilis requires novel prevention strategies. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of Treponema pallidum ( TPA ) using different specimen types is essential for vaccine development. <h4>Methods</h4> Patients with primary (PS) and secondary (SS) syphilis were recruited in Guangzhou, China.
