Abstract

The article focuses on a study which identifies sexual networks through quinolone-resistant neisseria gonorrhoeae (QRNG) multi-antigen sequence typing in Ontario. Around 104 consecutive, nonredundant QRNG isolates were identified for analysis in the study. Multiple QRNG clusters are likely to represent the molecular correlates of sexual networks in Ontario.
