Popis: | Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG)is the Gram-negative diplococci responsible for gonorrhoea. As most of the NG clinical isolates have developed resistance to at list one of the antibiotic drugs prescribed to this sexually transmitted disease, including tetracyclines (T) and macrolides (M), the microorganism susceptibility pattern should determine the choice of therapy1,2. Several studies have shown that MALDI-ToF significantly accelerates the resistance phenotyping compared to the commonly used routine antibiotic susceptibility tests. |
