Neisseria gonorrhoeae antmicrobial resistance: detection and propagation

淋病奈瑟氏菌是导致淋病的病原体，它已经对多种抗生素产生了耐药性。最后剩下的一类抗生素，可以成功地用于一般治疗淋病是超广谱头孢菌素（ESC）。然而，我们现在开始看到淋病奈瑟菌分离株具有ESC耐药的早期迹象。这项研究将使用分子技术和数学建模来研究澳大利亚的淋病奈瑟菌抗菌素耐药性。

Neisseria gonorrhoeae, the pathogen that causes gonorrhoea, has developed resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics. The last remaining class of antibiotics that can successfully be used for general treatment of gonorrhoea is extended spectrum cephalosporins (ESCs). However, we are now starting to see Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates with early signs of ESC resistance. This research will use molecular technology and mathematical modelling to investigate Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial resistance in Australia.
