A large proportion of gonorrhea infections are complicated by infections with another sexually transmitted disease, and multi-drug treatment has the added benefit of generally resolving these infections as well. ]]> 2019-07-22 02:49:26 UTC https://padlet.com/amgillespie02/hck8eusp1qw9/wish/371841714 amgillespie02 https://padlet.com/amgillespie02/hck8eusp1qw9/wish/371843415 Nesseria gonorrhoeae]]> 2019-07-22 03:03:16 UTC https://padlet.com/amgillespie02/hck8eusp1qw9/wish/371843415 amgillespie02 https://padlet.com/amgillespie02/hck8eusp1qw9/wish/371844593 This human pathogen is a gram-negative, flattened cocci, arranged as diplococci. It is identified by the gram-negative diplococci in the neutrophils. Gonoccoccus tends to remain alive after being engulfed by neutrophils, their appearance in urethral, vaginal, cervical, or eye exudates is presumptive evidence of infection. The disease can be confirmed by biochemical and DNA testing. This pathogen is also very rarely motile and non-spore-forming. ]]> 2019-07-22 03:14:18 UTC https://padlet.com/amgillespie02/hck8eusp1qw9/wish/371844593
