What is Chlamydia GC amplification?

What is Chlamydia GC amplification?

The CT and GC Direct Amplified Test is a gene amplification based technology that represents one of the most sensitive methods for the detection of CT and GC in urogenital samples. This test has the important added advantage that patient urine samples may be used to reliably screen for the presence of CT and GC.

What is a Chlamydia GC PCR test?

Test Includes: Detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) DNA by PCR (Real time Polymerase Chain Reaction) in first catch urine specimens, endocervical, vaginal, anal/rectal, throat and conjunctival swabs.

How do you read Chlamydia test results?

Your test results may not mean you have a problem. Ask your healthcare provider what your test results mean for you. Normal results are negative, meaning that no chlamydia cells were found in your sample. A positive result means that chlamydia bacteria were found and that you are likely infected with the disease.
