Thirdly, this isolate was more resistant to spectinomycin than what is generally experienced with N. gonorrhoeae cultures. Our laboratory tests approximately 3,500 N. gonorrhoeae cultures annually, and the MIC of spectinomycin is higher for N. meningitidis than for N. gonorrhoeae (3). It is of particular interest that a second similar microorganism has been isolated in Canada from a female genital specimen. It displays the same biochemical and serological characteristics as those previously described (2), except that it reduces nitrite (0.001%) and is GonoType 1 (J. R. Green, M. J. S. Dixon, and F. E. Ashton, unpublished observations). The significance of proper identification of such isolates cannot be overemphasized. It would indeed be valuable to have the isolate studied critically by molecular analysis. The organism has been deposited in the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC 43831) and may be obtained there for further study. LITERATURE CITED 1. DeVoe, I. W., and J. E. Gilchrist. 1978.
