Abstract
⺠We evaluated the VERSANT CT/GC DNA 1.0 (kPCR) assay. ⺠The assay detects Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae. ⺠The assay was compared with BD Probetec and Roche Cobas Amplicor. ⺠Almost complete agreement was observed. ⺠The assay demonstrated to be an easy to use robust diagnostic platform. ⺠We suggest a few modifications to the manufacturer's instructions to intercept false positivity.
