Abstract
Abstract
Using archived Neisseria gonorrhoeae samples from 2008 to 2012, the prevalence of tet(M) genemediating high-level tetracycline resistance in N. gonorrhoeae was 96% among 50 Kenyan women. Determining the local and national prevalence of gonococcal tetracycline resistance and surveillance of gonococcal antimicrobial resistance can inform the implementation of doxycycline postexposure prophylaxis for STI prevention.
