PMCID: PMC415880  PMID: 16557716

Abstract

An antigen isolated from Neisseria gonorrhoeae protoplasm reacted well in a flocculation procedure with sera from 86% of the females and 68% of the males infected with gonorrhea; the reactions with sera from presumed noninfected individuals were approximately 12%.
