4-Quinolone-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae in the United Kingdom

W. R. Gransden, C. Warren and I. Phillips
Department of Microbiology, United Medical School of Guy's Hospital, London.

The auxotype, serogroup and antimicrobial susceptibility of 977 clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae obtained at St Thomas' Hospital, London, during 1989 were determined; 23 isolates from 15 patients were resistant to 4-quinolones. Twelve of the patients acquired their infection in the UK and these strains were generally sensitive to other antimicrobial agents; strains from 10 patients were of serogroup IB-6. Three patients acquired their strains outside the UK and these isolates were multi-resistant and of different serogroups.
