[Evaluation of the new nucleic acid amplification system for direct detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae in women].

The performance of a real-time DNA amplification assay, BD ProbeTec ET System (BDPT, BD Diagnostic Systems), to detect Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae on endocervical and oropharyngeal samples was evaluated. After obtaining informed consent, 364 endocervical, 363 urine and 247 oropharyngeal specimens were collected from 307 cases. The overall agreement rate of the BDPT and Amplicor (AMP, Roche) assays for the detection of C.
