AI Article Synopsis
- - A study examined 1224 Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates from Guangzhou over two periods (2000-2005 and 2008-2013) for antimicrobial susceptibility.
- - Resistance to penicillin increased from 71.1% to 90.9%, and resistance to ciprofloxacin rose from 88.9% to 98.0% during the study.
- - Despite rising minimum inhibitory concentrations, all isolates were still susceptible to spectinomycin and ceftriaxone.
Article Abstract
A total of 1224 Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates from Guangzhou in 2 periods (2000-2005 and 2008-2013) were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing. The percentage of penicillin- and ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates increased from 71.1% (473/665) to 90.9% (508/559) and 88.9% (591/665) to 98.0% (548/559), respectively. All isolates remain susceptible to spectinomycin and ceftriaxone, with increasing minimum inhibitory concentrations.
