Comparison of COBAS AMPLICOR Neisseria gonorrhoeae PCR, Including Confirmation with N. gonorrhoeae-Specific 16S rRNA PCR, with Traditional Culture

A total of 3,023 clinical specimens were tested for Neisseria gonorrhoeae by using COBAS AMPLICOR (CA) PCR and confirmation of positives by N. gonorrhoeae-specific 16S rRNA PCR. The sensitivity of CA plus 16S rRNA PCR was 98.8%, compared to 68.2% for culture. Confirmation of CA positives increased t...
