Comparison of commercially available New York City medium and Martin-Lewis medium for recovery of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from clinical specimens. 1982

W D Lawton, and L W Koch

In 100 clinical specimens containing Neisseria gonorrhoeae, commercially prepared New York City medium in JEMBEC plates was superior to Martin-Lewis medium for recovery of gonococci in 49 specimens, equal to Martin-Lewis medium in 43 specimens, and less effective in 8 specimens.
