The illumigene Mycoplasma DNA amplification assay, performed on the illumipro-10™ , is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the direct detection of DNA from Mycoplasma pneumoniae in human throat and nasopharyngeal swabs obtained from patients suspected of having Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection.

The illumigene Mycoplasma assay utilizes loop-mediated isothermal DNA amplification (LAMP) technology to detect Mycoplasma pneumoniae by targeting a segment of the Mycoplasma pneumoniae genome.

Results from the illumigene Mycoplasma DNA amplification assay should be used in conjunction with clinical presentation, other laboratory findings, and epidemiological risk factors as an aid in the diagnosis of Mycoplasma infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management. Positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms and negative results in persons with respiratory tract infections may be due to pathogens not detected by this assay. Lower respiratory tract infections due to M. pneumoniae may not be detected by this assay. If lower respiratory tract infection due to M. pneumoniae is suspected, additional laboratory testing using methods other than the illumigene Mycoplasma DNA Amplification Assay may be necessary.

illumigene Mycoplasma is intended for use in hospital, reference or state laboratory settings. The device is not intended for point-of-care use.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
