Antimicrobial Resistance Profiles of Human Commensal <i>Neisseria</i> Species
Pathogenic <i>Neisseria gonorrhoeae</i> causes the sexually transmitted infection gonorrhea. <i>N. gonorrhoeae</i> has evolved high levels of antimicrobial resistance (AR) leading to therapeutic failures even in dual-therapy treatment with azithromycin and ceftriaxone. AR mec...
