Enhanced detection rate of Mycoplasma genitalium in urine overtime by transcription-mediated amplification in comparison to real-time PCR

Abstract Background Diagnosis of infected individuals with Mycoplasma genitalium (MG) is often performed by real-time PCR or transcription-mediated amplification (TMA). A limitation of the MG-TMA assay is the relatively short time span of 24 h in which the collected urine is required to be transferr...
