GeneXpert CT/NG was evaluated with 372 characterized bacterial strains. Sensitivity of 10 genome copies/reaction was obtained for both agents. Four Neisseria mucosa and two Neisseria subflava isolates were positive for one of two gonococcal targets; however, the assay flagged all as negative. The assay was analytically highly sensitive and specific.
GeneXpert CT/NG 用 372 株具有特征的细菌菌株进行了评估。两种病原体的检测灵敏度均为 10 个基因组拷贝/反应。4 株粘膜炎奈瑟菌和 2 株副流感奈瑟菌分离株的两种淋球菌靶标之一呈阳性;然而,该检测方法将所有结果均标记为阴性。该检测方法具有高度的分析灵敏度和特异性。
