Increased Sensitivity of DNA Amplification Testing for the Detection of Pharyngeal Gonorrhea in Men Who Have Sex with Men

15 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

We compared ligase chain reaction (LCR) assay with standard culture for the detection of pharyngeal Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection in men who have sex with men (MSM) presenting at a sexually transmitted diseases clinic in San Francisco. Pharyngeal specimens were obtained from 200 MSM who reported performing fellatio during the previous 2 weeks. Confirmatory testing of discrepant specimens was conducted using N....
