Performance of the Gen-Probe Transmission-Mediated Amplification Research Assay Compared to That of a Multitarget Real-Time PCR for <i>Mycoplasma genitalium</i> Detection

Abstract excerpt

Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) can cause nongonococcal urethritis and is potentially associated with urethritis, endometritis, and cervicitis. Several assays have been developed to detect MG. Molecular amplification assays for organism detection can be problematic due to the potential for false-positive and false-negative results. Confirmatory testing is often required in these situations, requiring additional time...
