Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:A variable percentage of samples analysed using the Cobas 4800 assay can give an invalid result by PCR inhibition or erroneous due to incorrect DNA extraction with the Cobas 4800 CT/NG test. METHOD:An analysis was performed using the vortex agitation and dilution protocol on the original sample (swab or urine) for a total of 116 samples. In order to analyse the sensitivity of this method, 100 samples (swabs and urine) with known results were retested. RESULTS:A total of 98.3% (114/116) of the samples analysed were resolved with this protocol with 100% agreement after reviewing clinical data, Gram stain, and other samples analysed in parallel from the same patient. DISCUSSION:The data indicate no loss of sensitivity with this protocol; thus Cobas 4800 users could use this method without the need for alternative methods.
