Gonococcus

[Illustration: GONORRHEA. GERMS.] = Gonorrhea = is an inflammation caused by a germ called the gonococcus, discovered by Dr.A. Neisser, of Breslau, Germany, in 1879. ❋ William J. Robinson (N/A)

In gonorrhea we have a special organism called the "gonococcus"; while in tuberculosis -- a variety of inflammation in which the blood-vessels are completely destroyed and a change or degeneration called "cheesy" is produced, leading to the production of a tubercle -- a rod-like bacillus is invariably found, the well-known and unfortunately too common tubercle bacillus. ❋ Unknown (N/A)

In 1879 a new stage of more precise knowledge of the venereal diseases began with Neisser's discovery of the gonococcus which is the specific cause of gonorrhoea. ❋ Havelock Ellis (1899)

“Mrs. Pryor has contracted hepatitis C and a mild case of gonococcus.” ❋ Damon Wayans (2010)

I think most doctors would empirically give antibiotics for both staph and gonococcus, but apparently for this exam, that would be wrong. ❋ Unknown (2005)

It is caused by a specific germ, the _gonococcus_, and is acquired through sexual intercourse with a person suffering from this disease. ❋ Kenelm Winslow (N/A)

It is caused by a venereal bacillus, the _gonococcus_. ❋ Henry Stanton (N/A)

The _gonococcus_ bacilli infect all the inner female genital organs. ❋ Henry Stanton (N/A)

Through the ages great confusion existed as to the origin and nature of venereal disease, but in 1905 a micro-organism, the _Spironema pallidum_, was demonstrated as the infective agent in syphilis, and the gonococcus as the infecting organism of gonorrhœa had been discovered in ❋ New Zealand.

Though the disease has been ravaging Europe and America for centuries, the germ of it has been discovered only a few years ago, namely, in 1905, and, like the gonococcus, also by a German scientist, Fritz Schaudinn. ❋ William J. Robinson (N/A)

It has already been claimed that vitamines are essential to the growth of the meningococcus, the influenza bacillus, the typhoid bacillus, the gonococcus, the pneumococcus Type I, Streptococcus hemolyticus, the diptheria bacillus, the Bacillus pertussis and certain soil organisms. ❋ Walter H.
