ABSTRACT
Objective Using molecular methods to study the relationship between genotypes and serum resmtance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae in Wuhan area.Methods NG-mast and serum bactericidal assays at the molecular level were used to differentiate the 46 strains which were isolated from the outpatients of sexually transmitted disease clinics and the relationship between different genotypes while phenotypes was also studied.Results 80.43% of the 46 strains contained the island and we were able to define three dillerent combinations of genes in the isolates.Results from serum bactericidal assays showed that all 9 sac-4 stralns did not provide any serum resistance.Conclusion Different isolates carried clifferent gonococcal genetm islands(pathogenicity island)and certain phenotypes.There were no sobious relationship between sac-4 gene and serum resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae.
