Int J STD AIDS . 2009 May; 20(6):414-7. PMID: 19451328
Gonococcal isolates from genitourinary (GU) medicine clinic attendees in Glasgow, Scotland were typed using Neisseria gonorrhoeae multiantigen sequence typing (NG-MAST). Correlation between named partners (contacts) and NG-MAST type was sought...

Palmer H, Young H, Graham C, Dave J
Sex Transm Infect . 2008 Feb; 84(4):280-4. PMID: 18256103
Objectives: To establish whether antibiotic resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae is uniform within a given sequence type as determined by N gonorrhoeae multi-antigen sequence typing (NG-MAST). Methods: Antibiotic susceptibility testing and...

Morris A, Palmer H, Young H
Epidemiol Infect . 2008 Feb; 136(3):417-20. PMID: 18241521
A collection of 106 Neisseria gonorrhoeae ciprofloxacin-resistant isolates were typed using Neisseria gonorrhoeae multi-antigen sequence typing (NG-MAST). Opa-typing was performed on 74 isolates which had non-unique sequence types to determine...

Young H, McElhinney J, Palmer H
Int J STD AIDS . 2006 Oct; 17(10):687-92. PMID: 17059639
In 2003, a national surveillance of demographic, behavioural, clinical and laboratory data on gonorrhoea at genitourinary (GU) medicine clinics in Scotland was undertaken. The data-set represented 77% of all gonorrhoea...
