RESUMEN
Se estudiaron 37 cepas de
Neisseria gonorrhoeae aisladas en diferentes provincias de Cuba; se analizó el perfil plasmídico en 37 aislamientos y en 34 se determinó la concentración inhibitoria mínima (CIM) frente a diferentes antimicrobianos (penicilina, tetraciclina, espectinomicina, cefuroxima, ciprofloxacina, cefotaxima y ceftriaxona). El 65.63% de las cepas estudiadas resultaron resistentes a la penicilina (CIM ≥2 µg/mL) y el 59.37% a la tetraciclina (CIM≥2 µg/mL). Todas las cepas fueron sensibles a las cefalosporinas, espectinomicina y la ciprofloxacina. Se encontraron 19 cepas PPNG (59.37%), 3 TRNG (9.38%) y una mostró resistencia cromosomal a la tetraciclina. Se aislaron los plásmidos de 3.2 Mda y 4.4 Mda, en 15 y 4 cepas respectivamente. En 3 cepas encontró el plásmido de 25.2 Mda. El plásmido de 24.5 Mda asoció significativamente con el plásmido de 3.2 Mda (p=6.412 x 10 e-3), siendo el perfil plasmídico predominante el 2.6/3.2/24.5 Mda con 13 cepas. El 16.21 % de las cepas resultó libre de plásmidos. La determinación del perfil plasmídico constituyó una herramienta útil en la caracterización de cepas de
Neisseria gonorrhoeae, contribuyendo conocimiento de la resistencia antimicrobiana de las cepas que circulan en Cuba.
