Identification of Mycoplasma genitalium from clinical swabs by direct PCR

2019-11-26

Abstract excerpt

Mycoplasma genitalium is one of the smallest self-replicating organisms. It is an obligate parasite found in the human genital tract. In men, the bacteria cause both acute and chronic non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU). In women, it has been associated with pelvic inflammatory disease and cervicitis among other related infections. Treatment of M. genitalium related infections has been effective using antibiotics suc...
