The cobas CT/NG v2.0 Test is an automated, in vitro nucleic acid amplification test for the qualitative detection of Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) and/or Neisseria gonorrhoeae (NG) DNA in urogenital specimens. The Test utilizes the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA in male and female urine, self-collected vaginal swab specimens (collected in a clinical setting), clinician-collected vaginal swab specimens, and endocervical swab specimens, all collected in cobas PCR Media (Roche Molecular Systems, Inc.), and cervical specimens collected in PreservCyt solution. This test is intended as an aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial and gonococcal disease in both symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals.

The cobas PCR Female Swab Sample Kit is used to collect and transport endocervical and vaginal swab specimens. The cobas PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for gynecological specimens. Use this collection kit only with either the cobas CT/NG Test or the cobas CT/NG v2.0 Test.

The cobas PCR Urine Sample Kit is used to collect and transport urine specimens. The cobas PCR Media serves as a nucleic acid stabilizing transport and storage medium for urine specimens. Use this collection kit only with either the cobas CT/NG Test or the cobas CT/NG v2.0 Test.
