Centre Pasteur Cameroun.

Gonococcal infections are always a public health problem in Cameroon. From January 1984 to December 1987, 2,074 strains have been isolated in the "Centre Pasteur du Cameroun". Among these strains, 190 had been studied in details concerning antibiotic susceptibility, auxotypes and plasmidic content. Penicillinase producing Neisseria gonorrhoeae (PPNG) were increasingly isolated: 32.28% (1984); 59.57% (1987). Auxotypes prototrophes and proline requiring were more often isolated. Plasmidic content showed essentially african type (with or without conjugative plasmid) but also asian type.
