Validating a Multiplex STI Panel With Non-Invasive Sample Types

Unleash the Potential

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) represent a unique healthcare burden in the United States with over 20 million new cases every year and an urgent need to control the spread. A multiplex PCR approach to STI testing has emerged as an economical and broader approach to routine STI and urgent STI testing.

However, a practical challenge of implementing an STI multiplex panel is validation. Learn from DarkDaily's complimentary webinar, "Validating a Multiplex STI Panel With Non-Invasive Sample Types: Unleash the Potential."

This free webinar with live Q&A focuses on adapting to and validating a single assay for four commonly requested STI tests: Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhea (NG), Mycoplasma genitalium (MG), and Trichomonas vaginalis (TV), using two separate PCR platforms and non-invasive sample types.
