Genetic detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae is replacing culture for increased diagnostic sensitivity. Specificity of several nucleic acid amplification tests is suboptimal. Herein, the Gen-Probe APTIMA Combo 2 and APTIMA GC assays had 100% specificity and 100% sensitivity after confirmatory testing, when testing 298 isolates of nongonococcal Neisseria and related species and 205 gonococcal isolates.
淋病奈瑟菌的基因检测正在取代培养以提高诊断灵敏度。一些核酸扩增检测的特异性并不理想。在此,当对 298 株非淋球菌奈瑟菌和相关物种以及 205 株淋病奈瑟菌分离株进行确认性检测时,Gen-Probe APTIMA Combo 2 和 APTIMA GC 检测法的特异性和敏感性均为 100%。
