Performance verification and clinical evaluation of the NAP-Fluo Cycler system for detecting five genital tract pathogens based on microfluidic technology.

Introduction: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are among the most common infectious diseases worldwide, often leading to coinfections. Timely detection of genital tract pathogens in at-risk populations is crucial for preventing STIs. We evaluated the NAP-Fluo Cycler System, an innovative microfluidic nucleic acid detection platform, for its ability to simultaneously identify (CT), (NG), (UU), (MG), and (MH) in urethral or cervical secretions.
