    Abstract:
    The in vitro activities of ciprofloxacin, enoxacin, fleroxacin, lomefloxacin, norfloxacin, ofloxacin, and pefloxacin against 10 penicillinase-producing N. gonorrhoeae strains (PPNG's), 10 non-PPNG's, 10 non-penicillinase-producing penicillin-resistant chromosomally mediated N. gonorrhoeae strains (CMRNG's) 3 N. gonorrhoeae strains with a decreased sensitivity against quinolones compounds and one tetracycline-resistant penicillinase-producing N. gonorrhoeae (TRNG/PPNG), strain were evaluated in this study. The non PPNG, PPNG, CMRNG and TRNG/PPNG strains showed good to excellent sensitivity to the quinolones tested. The N. gonorrhoeae strains with a decreased sensitivity against quinolones showed higher MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values.
