Objectives: To analyze the susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates to penicillin (Pen), cefixime (Cfm), ceftriaxone (Cro), tetracycline (Tet), ciprofloxacin (Cip), azithromycin (Azm) and spectinomycin (Spt). To verify the presence of Mutations in resistant genes. Methods: Antibiotic susceptibility testing was carried out by Etest method in 30 N. gonorrhoeae isolates collected from MSM population. PCR and […]
