Molecular Testing
Chlamydia Trachomatis(CT)/Neisseria Gonorrhoeae(GC)
The Sensitivity of the CT/GC test has been shown to be superior to culture and direct specimen tests
The greater sensitivity of the test permits the use of specimens other than endocervical swabs for women and urethral swabs for men. It the only assay with urine specimen sensitivity equivalent to swab specimen.
Organisms other than those we are detecting will not cause false CT/GC results
Simultaneous detection and differentiation of CT/GC in the same tube
Test requires no culture growth
CT/GC tests are not hindered by any excess mucus or blood present in the patient's sample
Reduces inventory and paperwork associated with multiple-collection devices
