Performance of the BD GeneOhm MRSA Achromopeptidase Assay for Real-Time PCR Detection of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus in Nasal Specimens

We evaluated the BD GeneOhm MRSA achromopeptidase (ACP) assay, which incorporates a new specimen preparation approach. A total of 1,216 leftover nasal samples were tested; using culture as the gold standard, the sensitivity and specificity were 92% and 94.6%, respectively. The new lysis method provi...
