From September 1978 to September 1979, the Authors determined the M. I. C. of 16 antibiotics against 420 Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains collected in Paris area, with standard gel dilution technic. These strains remain susceptible to the greatest proportion of antibiotics tested, except streptomycin. It has been noted, however, that sensibility of a certain percentage of strains, has decreased for penicillins, cyclins, macrolides. Some strains producing beta-lactamase has been identified. Authors compared results given by the gel dilution method to those given by the diffusion or so-called "disc" method. This shows no correlation between radius of inhibition and M. I. G., with no reliable criteria to estimate the area of inhibition. Also, four protocols for therapy were followed: spectinomycin, ampicillin-probenocid, thiamphenicol, minocyclin. The patients were surveyed by physical examination and bacteriological tests. No statistically significant differences could be noted between these four protocols. However, considering the size of the samples, it is not possible to conclude. The authors reassess the necessity to survey the drug-sensitivity of Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains, in each geographical area, following an internationally agreed method. They also conclude to the necessity to compare in vitro sensitivity tests with therapeutic schemes suggested by usual sensitivity to main antibiotics.
