Workflow and Throughput of Commercial Assays to Detect Mycoplasma genitalium and Macrolide Resistance–Mediating Mutations

ABSTRACT: Aptima Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) required the shortest and STD6 the longest time to detect MG in clinical samples. ResistancePlus MG detected MG and macrolide resistance-mediating mutations simultaneously. Times were influenced by specimen numbers. M. genitalium positives from the other 2 assays required increased time for macrolide resistance-mediating mutation sequencing.
