The diagnostic importance of a new approach for the detection of N. go. by 1,2-Propanediol: NAD+-Oxidoreductase (1,2-PDOR) counting was demonstrated. The advantages are established in supporting of the culture diagnosis of cervical and urethral swabs and in the shorting of the diagnostic way by isolation of N. go. colonies and biochemical differentiation.

Gonococcal urethritis is a sexually transmitted infection caused by obligate gram-negative diplococci, Neisseria gonorrhoeae. In a patient complaining of dysuria and urethral discharge, the diagnosis is typically confirmed by identifying the bacteria in mucosal secretions. Inadequately treated or untreated cases are at a risk of developing epididymo-orchitis, prostatitis and serious complications like disseminated gonococcal infection, meningitis, and endocarditis.
