Characterization of Neisseria gonorrhoeae reference strains used in development of serologic classification systems.

Bacterial Diseases Division, Centers for Disease Control, Atlanta, Georgia 30333.

ABSTRACT

Certain strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae have been used by numerous investigators to develop serologic classification systems. Some of these strains have been used by investigators to study gonococcal virulence. A reference consisting of strain classification by auxotype and serovar, a strain history, and a selected bibliography are provided cohesively.
