Xiao Shengxiang

Abstract

OBJECTIVE:To study the resistance of neisseria gonorrhoeae to antibiotics and the prevalence of penicillinase-producing neisseria gonorrhoeae(PPNG)in Shanxi area.METHODS:Minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs)of penicillin G,ciprofloxacin,spectionmycin and ceftriaxone against 102 strains of neisseria gonorrhoeae were determined by agar dilution.The PPNG strains were determined by paper acidometric method.RESULTS:The rates of neisseria gonorrhoeae strains resistant to penicillin G,ciprofloxacin,spectionmycin and ceftriaxone were 85.29%,94.12 %,3.92%,and 0%,respectively.25(24.51%)PPNG strains had been detected.CONCLUSION:Ceftriaxone and spectinomycin could be considered as the first choice in treating patients with gonorrhea.Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains have are highly resistant to penicillin and ciprofloxacin.
