ResistancePlus MG kit detection of M. genitalium and 23S rRNA gene mutations with the ABI 7500 qPCR platforma

PCR platform Test result No. of samples with M. genitalium 16S qPCR reference test result:
No. of samples with 23S rRNA mutation Sanger sequencing reference test resultb:
+ve −ve Mutation +vec Mutation −ve
SpeeDx ABI 7500 +ve 99 0 62 0

Total 101 81 67 30
a

+ve, positive; −ve, negative.

b

Analysis of 97 M. genitalium-positive samples. Sequencing results for two samples were unavailable due to a failed sequencing run.

c

Mutations (n = 67) included A2058G (n = 23), A2058T (n = 4), and A2059G (n = 40).

d

Fewer than 10 genomes/5 μl of extract were detected in the samples when discrepant analysis was performed by repeating the in-house 16S qPCR.
