BACKGROUND
Gonorrhoea is one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases in the world. Fast and effective laboratory diagnostics of the infection is very important. The aim of the study was to compare Real-Time PCR and bacterial culture in diagnostics of Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections in
The diagnostic procedure in gonorrhoea always starts with staining methods that the physician at first has to rely on in spite of their limited evidence, and that may justify specific treatment. Only culture, oxydase reaction, and biochemical differentiation (e.g. carbohydrate degradation test) can
Immunoblotting has been used to compare the specificity of serum and local IgG and IgA antibodies in 13 women with gonorrhoea and in 13 controls. The technique allowed the simultaneous detection of antibodies to the major outer membrane proteins I, II, and III, pili and lipopolysaccharide;
Pharyngeal gonorrhoea is a common sexually transmitted infection among 'men having sex with other men' (MSM). Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) pharyngeal infections are usually characterized by the absence of symptoms, acting as an important reservoir for their further spread. To the best of our
Previous studies of association of ABO blood groups with gonorrhea have shown contradictory results. Despite the interdependencies of ABO, Lewis, and secretor systems, none of the previous studies examined the combined effect of these systems on their proposed association with gonorrhea. This study
Glycomics is a rapidly growing field that focuses on the structure and function of carbohydrates (glycans) in biological systems. Glycan interactions play a major role in infectious disease, at all stages of colonisation and disease progression. Neisseria meningitidis, the cause of meningococcal
BACKGROUND
Azithromycin is one of the most commonly used macrolide antibiotics. As other macrolides it inhibits bacterial proteins synthesis by binding with V domene of bacterial 23S rRNA. Resistance to azithromycin can be related to: 1. Mutations in gene encoding 23S rRNA. Significant effect on
BACKGROUND
The ABO blood group antigens are carbohydrate moieties expressed on human red blood cells however; these antigens can also be expressed on some other cells particularly the surface of epithelial cells and may be found in mucosal secretions. In many human populations 80% secrete ABO
BACKGROUND
Ciprofloxacin is commonly used in Poland specially for the treatment of urinary tract infections including urethritis. Patients are often treated without pathogen identification and antimicrobial resistance tests. Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection is one of the most common causes of
Three cases of pharyngeal gonorrhoea were misdiagnosed in patients harbouring meningococci which failed to utilise maltose in CTA medium. The microbiological identity of the isolates was established by other means. Although meningococci giving atypical reactions to carbohydrate utilisation tests
Chlorophytum borivilianum Santapau & Fernandes (Liliaceae) also known as 'Safed Musli' is a traditional rare Indian medicinal herb which has many therapeutic applications in Ayurvedic, Unani, Homeopathic and Allopathic system of medicine. Its roots (tubers) are widely used for various therapeutic
BACKGROUND
The leaves of Dichrostachys cinerea are used as laxative, diuretic, painkiller. It is also used in the treatment of gonorrhoea, boils, oedema, gout, veneral diseases and nasopharyngeal affections, etc.
METHODS
The Phytochemical investigation of ethanolic extract of D. cinerea leaves were
Gonorrhea is one of the most prevalent sexually transmitted diseases in the world. A naturally occurring variation of the terminal carbohydrates on the lipooligosaccharide (LOS) molecule correlates with altered disease states. Here, we investigated the interaction of different stable gonoccocal LOS
Clinical and epidemiological synergy exists between the globally important sexually transmitted infections, gonorrhea and HIV. Neisseria gonorrhoeae, which causes gonorrhea, is particularly adept at driving HIV-1 expression, but the molecular determinants of this relationship remain undefined. N.
